“When the parents brought in the child Jesus to do for him what the custom of the Law required, Simeon took him in his arms and praised God” (Luke 2: 27-28)
We worship the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, the Holy and Co-Essential Trinity. Hail to the Church, the house of the angels. Hail to the Virgin, who gave birth to our Saviour. Thy Body and Thy Blood: are the forgiveness of our sins: with the New Testament: that Thou gave to Thy disciples. Hail to you, O Mary, the fair dove, who brought forth unto us, God the Logos. Hail to you, O Mary, a holy hail. Hail to you, O Mary, the Mother of the Holy (Verses of Cymbals from the Coptic Orthodox Church).
