Irmos: With Thy divine light illumine the souls of those who with love rise at dawn unto Thee, O Good One, that they may know Thee, O Word of God, to be the true God Who calleth all forth from the darkness of sin.
Soaring over the snares of the enemy with keenness of mind and purity of soul, O blessed one, thou wast borne aloft to the mansions of heaven, receiving wings of divine knowledge.
Theotokion: By thy mediation and intercession, O Virgin, cut asunder the bonds of my sin; for thou art the hope of the despairing who have recourse with faith to thy divine protection.
Thine apostle, O Good One, preached Thy coming in the flesh unto men, guiding the lost to knowledge and illumining them with the radiance of faith.
Thou wast shown to be a most magnificent temple, O blessed Onesimus, having within thee, like a lampstand, the effulgence of divine grace, being built through the activity of the divine Spirit.
