Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom 6

The Divine Liturgy of Saint John Chrysostom (Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America)

1 THE LITANY OF FERVENT SUPPLICATION — The people respond to each petition with Lord, have mercy.

2 Let us all say with all our soul and with all our mind, let us all say.

3 Lord almighty, God of our fathers, we pray You, hear us and have mercy.

4 Have mercy on us, O God, according to Your great mercy, we pray You, hear us and have mercy.

5 Again we pray for our Archbishop.

6 Again we pray for our brethren: the priests, the hieromonks, the hierodeacons, the monastics, and all our brotherhood in Christ.

7 Again we pray for mercy, life, peace, health, salvation, protection, forgiveness, and remission of the sins of the servants of God, all pious Orthodox Christians residing and visiting in this city.

8 Again we pray for the blessed and ever-memorable founders of this holy church, and for all our fathers and brethren who have fallen asleep before us, who here have been piously laid to their rest, as well as the Orthodox everywhere.

9 Again we pray for those who bear fruit and do good works in this holy and all-venerable church, for those who labor and those who sing, and for the people here present who await Your great and rich mercy.

10 THE PRAYER OF FERVENT SUPPLICATION — Priest: Lord our God, accept this fervent supplication from Your servants, and have mercy on us in accordance with the abundance of Your mercy, and send down Your compassion upon us and upon all Your people who await Your great and rich mercy. For You are a merciful God Who loves mankind, and to You we offer up glory, to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit, now and forever and to the ages of ages.

11 People: Amen.
