Leavetaking of the Transfiguration of our Lord
Troparion - Tone 7
You were Transfigured on the Mount, O Christ God,Revealing Your glory to Your disciples as far as they could bear it.Let Your everlasting Light shine upon us sinners!Through the prayers of the Theotokos, O Giver of Light, glory to You!
Kontakion - Tone 7
On the Mountain You were Transfigured, O Christ God,And Your disciples beheld Your glory as far as they could see it;So that when they would behold You crucified,They would understand that Your suffering was voluntary,And would proclaim to the world,That You are truly the Radiance of the Father!
