Irmos: The children of Abraham in the Persian furnace, afire with love of piety more than with the flame, cried out: Blessed art Thou in the temple of Thy glory, O Lord!
As a true holy hierarch thou didst offer up in the Spirit the unbloody sacrifice, and by the mortification of the passions, O all-blessed one, thou didst with faith offer thyself to the Master as a sacrifice of sweet savor.
Theotokion: God chose thee, the beauty of Jacob, and made His abode within thee; and He preserved thee a virgin after giving birth, as thou wast before birthgiving, O Virgin Theotokos.
Thou didst quench the fire of pleasures with the sweat of ascetic endeavor, and like Elijah, O wonder-worker, by thy prayers thou didst end the drought with showers of rain, opening the closed heavens by thy supplications.
Sanctified from childhood, with the boldness of thy prayers, thou didst cause the wombs of the barren to bear many children, didst give sight to the blind, and didst enable the lame to walk, O thrice-blessed Theodore.
