Irmos: Out of love for Thine image Thou didst stand affixed to the Cross, O Compassionate One, and the nations melted away; for Thou art my strength and boast, O Thou Who lovest mankind.
Theotokion: He Who wrought all things by His will is Himself wrought of thy pure blood, saving those who acknowledge thee to be the pure Mother of God.
Having been anointed with the chrism of the priesthood, thou wast shown forth as a hierarch, ordaining priests and granting the cleansing of salvation unto all.
Thou didst protect thy flock from all the harm of the adversaries, O blessed one, and didst blind the falsehood of Arius with the radiance of thy words.
Invested with the power of the Spirit, thou didst dispel the evil spirits of malice, who could not endure thy rebuke, O most blessed one.
