Resurrectional Apolytikion Plagal of the Fourth Tone
From on High did You descend, O merciful Lord, for us did You endure, three days in the tomb that we may be, released from passions in this world, You who are our resurrection and our life Glory unto You O Lord.

Apolytikion for All Saints
Adorned in the blood of Your Martyrs throughout all the world as in purple and fine linen, your Church, though them, cries to you, O Christ God: Send down your compassions upon your people; grant peace to your commonwealth, and great mercy to our souls.

Apolytikion of the Church
Today is the beginning of our salvation and the revelation of the mystery of the ages. O the Son of God becomes on this day the Virgin’s Son and Gabriel proclaims this gift from God. Together with him we cry out to the Theotokos singing: Hail to you who are filled with grace. The Lord is with you.

Kontakion
As the first-fruits of our nature to the Planter of created things, the world presents the God-bearing martyred Saints in offering to you, O Lord. Through their earnest entreaties, keep your Church in deep peace and divine tranquillity, through the pure Theotokos, O you Who are greatly merciful.
