"Amidst the darkness of the world..."

Christ is risen! Truly He is risen!
St. John the Theologian (source)
  
Amidst the darkness of the world, you were seen to be shining with the spotless Light, and being seized by fervor, you became a lamp of piety which cast forth many seeds of theology to generations of the nations, O John, shining with light.
-from the Matins Canon for St. John the Theologian
  
(source)
  
Christ is risen from the dead, by death, trampling down upon death, and to those in the tombs, He has granted life!
Truly, the Lord is risen!
