Ode 1 Of old Thou didst bury the pursuing tyrant beneath the waves of the sea. Now the children of those who were saved bury Thee beneath the earth, but with the maidens let us sing to the Lord, for gloriously has He been glorified. Ode 3 Thou didst suspend the earth immovably upon the waters. Now creation beholds Thee suspended on Calvary. It quakes with great amazement and cries: “None is holy but Thee, O Lord.” Ode 4 Foreseeing Thy divine humiliation on the cross, Habakkuk cried out trembling; “Thou didst shatter the dominion of the mighty by joining those in hell as the almighty Lord.” Ode 5 Isaiah saw the never-setting light of Thy compassionate manifestation to us as God, O Christ. Rising early from the night he cried out: “The dead shall arise. Those in the tombs shall awake. All those on earth shall greatly rejoice.” Ode 6 Jonah was caught but not held fast in the belly of the whale. He was a sign of Thee who hast suffered and accepted burial. Coming forth from the beast as from a bridal chamber, he called out to the guard: “By observing vanities and lies you have forsaken your own mercy.” Ode 7 Inexpressible wonder! In the furnace Thou didst save the holy youths from the flame. Now Thou art placed in the grave as a lifeless corpse, for the salvation of us who sing: “Blessed art Thou, O God, our Redeemer!” Ode 8 Be amazed, O heavens! Be shaken, O foundations of the earth! Behold, He that dwell in the highest is numbered among the dead and sheltered in a lowly tomb. Bless Him, O youths, Praise Him, O priests! O people, exalt Him above all forever! Ode 9 “Do not lament Me O Mother, seeing Me in the tomb, The Son conceived in the womb without seed. For I shall arise and be glorified with eternal glory as God. I shall exalt all who magnify you in faith and in love."

I listen to to this daily to remind myself how unworthy we are and how gracious and compassionate God was to save us through our Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ.
