Feast of the Holy Cross of Varag. 
Hymns of Daniel 3 (Harts)
Tone 1

Translated by: V. Rev. Fr. Daniel Findikyan

You shined today the light of your unspeakable divinity upon the Cross,

On the mount of Varag.

Blessed is the Lord God of our Fathers!


You made known today the appearance of your awe-inspiring second coming,

By the sign of your Cross, beaming it on earth.

Blessed is the Lord God of our Fathers!


You gave a sign to those who fear, and a weapon against the enemy.

With it, protect those who believe in your holy name.

Blessed is the Lord God of our Fathers!


He adorned today the sign of the Cross

With a heavenly light brighter than the sun.

Bless the Lord and exalt him forever!


He revealed today the redemptive sign to the angels,

By descending to the mount of Varag.

Blessed is the Lord God of our Fathers!


Come all you saved by the life-giving Cross,

Bowing down to Christ our Savior upon it.


Blessed is the Lord God of our Fathers!
