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!
Theotokion: Behold, O Virgin, in thy womb didst thou conceive the Word, Who with the Father is equally without beginning, and thou gavest birth in the flesh unto Him Who granteth restoration unto all that from Adam’s time have fallen, O all-immaculate one.
Like lightning hath the divine proclamation of thy dogmas flashed throughout all the earth, O father most wise; and it shone forth as light with the revelations of miracles, enlightening hearts that were in darkness.
Following the command of the Savior, O father, thou didst, like a most blessed servant, diligently increase manifold the talant given thee, and art vouchsafed the Master’s joy.
Having deepened thy theological mind, like a river thou didst put forth streams of sacred dogmas, giving drink unto the fullness of the faithful, O father Ambrose, teacher of the mysteries.
