A friend's dad died yesterday.

MEMORY ETERNAL

Panikhida Troparia of St. Isaac the Syrian in Tone 8 - Fr. Apostolos Hill
&ampamp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;bgsound src="http://lukeseraphim.com/audiofiles/Troparia_Tone8.mp3" loop="infinite"&ampamp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;&ampamp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;br&ampamp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;
Among the Saints, O Christ, give rest to the soul of Your servant, where there is no pain, nor sorrow, nor sighing, but life everlasting. You alone are immortal, who didst make and mould man. But we mortals were formed from earth, and to the earth we return, as You who created me did command and say to me, “You are earth, and to the earth shall you return,” where all we mortals are going, and for a funeral dirge we make the song: Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!"

"With the spirits of the righteous give rest, O Savior, to the soul of Your departed servant, and keep him in the blessed life with You, O Lover of mankind. In the place of Your rest, O Lord, where all Your Saints repose give rest also to the soul of Your servant for You alone are the Lover of mankind.”

When they reach the Church the body is placed in the Narthex, and they begin Psalm 90.

Psalm 90
One who dwells in the help of the Most High will live under the protection of the of the God of heaven; will say to the Lord: You are my protector and my refuge, my God, and I shall hope in him. For he will deliver you from the hunters’ snare, and from the word which troubles. He will overshadow you with his wings, and under his feathers you will have hope; his truth will encircle you with a shield. You will not be afraid of terror by night, of the arrow that flies by day; of the thing that prowls in the darkness, of mishap or of the noonday devil. A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right, but it will not come near you. But with your eyes you will observe, and see the reward of sinners. For you, Lord, are my hope: you have made the Most High your refuge. Evils will not approach you, nor a scourge draw near your dwelling, because he has given orders to his Angels about you, to guard you in all your ways. They will bear you on their hands, lest you dash your foot against a stone. You will walk on asp and basilisk, and trample down lion and dragon. Because he/she hoped in me, I shall deliver him/her; I shall shelter him/her, because he/she knew my name. He/she will cry to me, and I shall hear him/her, I am with him/her in trouble; I shall rescue him/her and glorify him/her. I shall fill him/her with length of days, and show him/her my salvation.

And after this in a louder voice:

Blessed are you, O Lord; teach me your statutes. Blameless in the way. Alleluia.

And we sing the 1st Section of Psalm 118 in Tone 6, saying at the end of each verse, Alleluia.

[Singers: Blessed are the blameless in the way, who walk in the law of the Lord. Alleluia.
My soul has longed to desire your judgements at all times. Alleluia.
My soul slumbered from weariness; strengthen my by your words. Alleluia.
Incline my heart to your testimonies, and not to covetousness. Alleluia.
Dejection took hold of me because of sinners who abandon your law. Alleluia.
I am a companion of all who fear you, and who keep your commandments. Alleluia.

Glory. Alleluia.
