Rejoice, O Bride unwedded! Rejoice, O mountain overshadowed by grace! Rejoice, ladder raised to heaven by which God descended!
Rejoice, O depth hard to fathom even for angels’ eyes! Rejoice, O throne of the King! Rejoice, you who carry the One who carries all!
Through your prayers, O Theotokos, grant us to stand unashamed before your Son, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.
