Troparion - Tone 1

By raising Lazarus from the dead before Your passion,

You did confirm the universal Resurrection, O Christ God!

Like the children with the palms of victory,

We cry out to You, O Vanquisher of death; Hosanna in the Highest!

Blessed is He that comes in the Name of the Lord!

Troparion - Tone 4

When we were buried with You in Baptism, O Christ God,

We were made worthy of eternal life by Your Resurrection!

Now we praise You and sing: Hosanna in the highest!

Blessed is He that comes in the Name of the Lord!
