Irmos: Beholding Thee lifted up upon the Cross, O Sun of righteousness, the Church stood rooted in place, crying out as is meet: Glory to Thy power, O Lord!
Made steadfast with the staff of truth, like Moses thou didst cast down the deceits of the serpent, O Blaise, favored one of Christ, denouncing the tyrant and instructing a new people.
Theotokion: Having given birth to the Tree of life, O all-hymned one, thou wast shown to be like a garden of paradise planted within the Church; and eating thereof, we have come to know Christ our God.
The affinity of thy corrections with God showed thee to be a benefactor of both reason-endowed and dumb creatures, O blessed one; wherefore, thou hast received gifts of healing.
In the vale wherein sickness was rife, O father, thou didst rightly choke the thorns of iniquity for thy flock in Christ.
