Irmos: God the Lord, the Son of the unoriginate Father, hath revealed Himself to us incarnate of the Virgin, to enlighten those in darkness and to gather the dispersed. Wherefore, we magnify the all-hymned Theotokos.
Having crucified thy flesh with the fear of thy Master, thou didst die to the world, O father Theodore; and now, rejoicing, thou hast passed over to the life of the living, deified by communion and ever filled with light, O thrice-blessed one.
Theotokion: Thy womb became the dwelling-place of the Light Who hath illumined the world with rays of divinity, O portal of the Sun of glory, most joyous among women, boast of the venerable, O most holy and all-blessed Virgin.
Today we celebrate thy divine memory, a day of festivity, full of holiness; for thou hast truly been shown to be a child of the light and the day, and thou livest, rejoicing, in never-waning light.
O radiant beacon, namesake of the gifts of God, lamp of divine radiance, never-waning effulgence, phial of the virtues and steadfast pillar of monastics: by thy supplications deliver thy flock from all tribulation.
