Christ is Born! Glorify Him!
To all a blessed Feast of the Nativity of Our Lord Jesus Christ!
Today the Virgin gives birth to the Transcendent One, / and the earth offers a cave to the Unapproachable One! / Angels with shepherds glorify Him. / The wise men journey with a star, / since for our sake the Pre-Eternal God was born as a young Child.
—Kontakion for the Feast of the Nativity
Glory to Jesus Christ!

Christ is Born! Glorify Him!
Thy Nativity, O Christ our God, * has shone to the world as the light of wisdom. * For by it those who worshipped the stars * were taught by a star to adore Thee, * the Sun of Righteousness, * and to know Thee, the Orient from on high. * O Lord, glory to Thee.
