From the Lenten Triodion:
Friday of the Third Week
![]()
With our flesh cleansed by abstinence and our souls filled with light by prayer, count us worthy, Lord, to behold Your Precious and Venerable Cross; to reverence it with fear, singing hymns and saying: Glory to Your Life-Giving Cross; Glory to the holy spear that pierced You, by which we are restored to life, for You alone are the Lover of mankind! (Third Sessional Hymn- Matins)
