One comment for students of Byzantine Chant: This is the kliton encantilation of the doxasticon, that is: this itself is not plagal 2nd mode. After the encantilation in kliton (4th mode) the choir would antiphonally chant this doxasticon again in plagal of the 2nd mode.
This hymn is for a funeral and only, and is sung only on the day of the burial, on the three days of the deceased, on the 9 days, on the 40 days, on the 3 months, and on one year the memorial service of the deceased.
Rejoice, rejoice, O Bethany! On this day God came to thee, God came to thee; and in Him the dead are made alive, as is right for He is the Life! He is the Life! He is the Life! And in Him the dead are made alive, as is right for He is the Life! When Martha went to receive Him, grieving loudly with bitter tears, bitter tears, she poured out the sorrow of her heart to Him, with great sadness, wailing her lament. Wailing her lament, wailing her lament. She poured out the sorrow of her heart to Him, with great sadness, wailing her lament. She at once cried out unto Him, “My most compassionate Lord! My Lord! At the great loss of my brother Lazarus my heart is broken, help me! Help me! Help me! At the great loss of my brother Lazarus my heart is broken, help me! Jesus said to her, “Cease thy weeping, cease thy grieving and sad lament, sad lament; for thy brother, My most beloved friend Lazarus, very soon will live again! He will live again! He will live again! For thy brother, My most beloved friend Lazarus, very soon will live again!” Then He, the faithful Redeemer, made His way unto the tomb, unto the tomb, where He cried unto him who was buried four days, calling him forth, saying, “Lazarus, arise! Lazarus, arise! Lazarus, arise!” Where He cried unto him who was buried four days, calling him forth, saying, “Lazarus, arise! Come with haste, ye two sisters, and behold a wondrous thing, wondrous thing, for thy brother from the tomb has returned to life. To the beloved Redeemer now give thanks! Now give thanks! Now give thanks! For thy brother from the tomb has returned to life. To the beloved Redeemer now give thanks! To Thee, O Lord of creation, we kneel down in reverence profound, reverence profound; for all we who are dead in sin; in Thee, O Jesus, are made alive! We are made alive! We are made alive! For all we who are dead in sin; in Thee, O Jesus, are made alive! Rejoice, rejoice, O Bethany! On this day God came to thee, God came to thee; and in Him the dead are made alive, as is right for He is the Life! He is the Life! He is the Life! And in Him the dead are made alive, as is right for He is the Life!
Let us contemplate the life and suffering of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus the Christ, Son of God today. That our Creator gave Himself over to the Pharisees and Romans, and was tortured and executed, so that the Sinless, Spotless Lamb's blood could be shed for all humanity's sins in perpetuity is a gift none of us deserve. God bless you all.
In the 15th Antipon you hear a detailed description of the crucifixion of Jesus. It gives the people a better explanation of the events of the day than they would get by reading it. Because many of the people were illiterate in the early days of the church. The Orthodox Church is very rich in tradition. I think you would get a better idea of the hymns from the Antiochian Orthodox Tradition you would with the Greek.
I listen to this chant daily during Great Lent, It spreads through my body & soul like yeast rises, Glory to God for such talent for His purpose. How can I get my hands on the Byzantine notation for this beautiful piece?
