Ode 6. Irmos. Grant me a tunic.

Anastasis liturgical translations — translated by Ephrem Lash

Rights-risk acceptedServed

¶1

Just as you had been baptised, you baptised peoples in water; while you were baptised a second time with your own blood.

¶2

Do not cease to make your entreaties to Christ, blest Saint, on behalf of your flock, and to offer your blood as supplication.

¶3

As a chosen and precious shoot of the vine of life, you flowered with much fruit for your Master, most sacred Martyr.

¶4

As God your Offspring was the destroyer of wooden idols, Mary, Bride of God, and he is worshipped with the Father and the Spirit.

¶5

Grant me a tunic of light, Most Merciful, Christ our God, who wrap yourself in light as in a garment.
