Ode 5. Irmos. You, Lord, my light.
Anastasis liturgical translations — translated by Ephrem Lash
Your godlike and all-wise servants, O Christ, you showed as a light in the world, announcing you to all, the light that does not set.
Outstandingly practising every virtue, Apostles, you destroyed all the snares of the manifold wickedness of the demons.
The Apostles, enflamed by fiery tongues, revealed to us the shining of the Trinity, of the Godhead in Unity.
We present you as an unbreakable weapon against enemies; we have gained you as anchor and hope of our salvation, O Bride of God.
