The Chanting of the Diptychs
According to the practice of the Orthodox Church in America
After the clergy (or choir) have sung the final Kontakion, the Archdeacon or Protodeacon comes before the royal doors.
Archdeacon: “Let us pray to the Lord”
Choir: “Lord, have mercy”
Metropolitan: “For holy art Thou, O our God…now and ever…”
Archdeacon: “O Lord, save the Pious!”
Choir: “O Lord, save the Pious!”
Archdeacon: “And hear us.”
Choir: “And hear us.”
The Archdeacon then chants the Diptychs. After each commemoration, the choir repeats the same commemoration.
After the conclusion of the Diptychs:
Archdeacon: “...and unto ages of ages!”
Choir: “Amen!” and then “Holy God…” in the usual manner at a Hierarchical Divine Liturgy.
It is helpful for the choir director and the first deacon to coordinate the translation to be used.
