Khairomen o philoi by Drew Campbell

This processional hymn, set to a folk tune, is sung in call-and-response style, with the leader singing verses 1-7 (or any combination of these) and the people repeating the chorus.

Translation:

1. Let us rejoice, o friends, I process toward an altar
Chorus: Let us pray, let us pray, may it be well, gods
2. Rejoice, o gods, all gods and goddesses
3. Rejoice, o gods, you who are immortal
4. Rejoice, o gods, we bear offerings
5. Rejoice, o gods, a pleasant sacrifice
6. Rejoice, o gods, come, blessed ones
7. (same as #1)
