Troparion:
By raising Lazarus from the dead before Thy Passion, Thou didst confirm the universal resurrection, O Christ God! Like the children with the palms of victory, we cry out to Thee: O Vanquisher of Death: Hosanna in the highest! Blessed is He that comes in the name of the Lord!

Kontakion:
Sitting on Thy throne in heaven, carried on a foal on earth, O Christ God! Accept the praise of angels and the songs of children, who sing: Blessed is He that comes to recall Adam!

Prokeimenon in the 4th Tone:
Blessed is He that comes in the name of the Lord! God is the Lord and has revealed Himself to us!
(Vs.) O give thanks to the Lord, for He is good, for His mercy endures forever!

Epistle:
The reading from the Epistle of the Holy Apostle Paul to the Philippians. (Phil. 4:4-9)

Brethren, rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice. Let all men know your forbearance. The Lord is at hand. Have no anxiety about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, will keep your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is gracious, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. What you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, do; and the God of peace will be with you.

Alleluia Verses:
O sing to the Lord a new song, for the Lord has done marvelous things!
(Vs.) All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God!
