O Lord, Thou hast been a refuge for us from generation to
generation.
I said, Lord have mercy upon me; heal my soul,
for I have sinned against Thee.
O Lord, to Thee have I fled; teach me to do Thy will,
for Thou art my God.
For with Thee is the fountain of life;
in Thy light we shall see light.
Extend Thy mercy unto them that know Thee.
Holy God, Holy Mighty, Holy Immortal, have mercy upon us.

us.
After the end of Doxology the dismissal hymn of the holiday is chanted. On Sundays this is:
Today hath salvation come into the world.
Let us sing praises unto Him Who is risen from the
grave,
and Who is the author of our life; for, having destroyed
death by death,
He hath given unto us the victory and the great mercy.
