Ode 6. Irmos. Grant me a tunic.

The revered Apostle proclaimed your glory, O Christ, and enlightened all through the word of his divine grace.

Like the sun you sped over the earth, glorious Apostle, announcing the three-sunned, uncreated light of the Godhead to believers.

We believers proclaim you, Mother of God, as Temple of God, Ark and living Bridal Chamber, and Gate of heaven.

Grant me a tunic of light, O most merciful, Christ our God, who wrap yourself in light as in a garment.
