The Creed of the Orthodox Faith
1. I believe in one God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible;
2. And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the Only-begotten, Begotten of the Father before all ages, Light of Light, True God of True God, Begotten, not made; of one essence with the Father, by whom all things were made;
3. Who for us men and for our salvation came down from the heavens, and was incarnate of the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary, and became man;
4. And was crucified for us under Pontius Pilate, and suffered and was buried;
5. And rose again on the third day, according to the Scriptures;
6. And ascended into the heavens, and sitteth at the right hand of the Father;
7. And shall come again, with glory, to judge both the living and the dead, Whose kingdom shall have no end.
8. And in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the Giver of Life, Who proceedeth from the Father, Who with the Father and the Son together is worshiped and glorified, Who spake by the Prophets;
9. In One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church.
10. I Confess one Baptism for the remission of sins.
11. I look for the Resurrection of the dead,
12. And the life of the age to come, Amen

Hymn to the Mother of God
It is truly meet to bless thee, the Theotokos, ever-blessed and most blameless, and Mother of our God. More honourable than the Cherubim, and beyond compare more glorious than the Seraphim, who without corruption gavest birth to God the Word, the very Theotokos, thee do we magnify.
