The Paschal Homily
The Paschal sermon of St. John Chrysostom is read aloud in every Orthodox parish on the morning of the Great and Holy Pascha Jesus Christ.According to the tradition of the Church, no one sits during the reading of St John’s sermon, but all stand and listen with attentiveness.
If any man be devout and loveth God,
Let him enjoy this fair and radiant triumphal feast!
If any man be a wise servant,
Let him rejoicing enter into the joy of his Lord.
