Holy, holy, holy...

Priest:
Agios. Holy, Holy, are You O Lord and Holy in all things. For You are the True Holy God, Jesus Christ, the First born of all creation; Who dwells in the glory of His majesty, in Him the fullness of the Divinity dwells bodily. You did not consider it robbery to be equal to God, Your Father, but with Your good will You came to earth taking the form of a servant becoming man in truth; You were incarnate in the undefiled womb of the Holy Theotokos, Saint Mary.

You who was clothed in purity and never sinned, gave Yourself up to the holy cross for our salvation. You gave us this example, for after supper You arose, took a towel and girded Yourself and poured water into a basin, and began to wash Your disciples´ feet; and wiped them with the towel with which You were girded, You have given them the ordinance of love and humility and the remembrance of Your love for man for You said to them, "If I, your Lord and Master have washed your feet, then you also ought to wash one another´s feet. As much as I have done it unto you so you ought to do to one another."

You have ordered them to follow Your commandments and statutes for You have said, "love one another; by this shall all men know you are my disciples because you love one another." You also have taught us love and unity; and You has reconciled us with Your Father. Through Your love and compassion for mankind, You have crowned our freedom by the example of washing the disciples´ feet. When Peter exalted Your Divinity and refused saying, "You shall never wash my feet," he heard Your answer, "If I do not wash you, You have no part with me," but he cried sincerely saying, "Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head!" and he also heard Your divine voice which is full of truth saying, "He who is bathed needs only to wash his feet, but is completely clean."

Therefore, we ask of You our Lord Jesus Christ to make us worthy and present in our midst as You were with Your disciples, the holy apostles.
