Menaion — translated by Isaac Lambertsen

Rights-risk acceptedServed

¶1

Irmos: Christ is my power, my God and my Lord, the honored Church doth sing, crying out in godly manner with a pure mind, keeping festival in the Lord.

¶2

The Lord of all appeared to us in accordance with thy prophecy, O blessed one, calling all to knowledge of Him; and He hath freed us from slavery.

¶3

Theotokion: O most pure Mary, still thou the tumult of the passions of my mind and the storm of temptations, as thou gavest birth unto the Wellspring of dispassion, O Virgin Mother.

¶4

Illumined by grace, thou didst make proclamation, speaking to those who bow low to labor beneath the one yoke, who follow the Faith and serve the Lord.
