Irmos: Him of Whom the angels and all the armies of heaven are in awe as Creator and Lord, hymn, ye priests, glorify, ye children; ye people, exalt Him supremely for all ages!
Thou didst acquire temperance, unceasing prayer, exalting humility, true love and dispassion, O father; wherefore, Christ hath given thee the grace of miracles forever.
Thou hast given rebirth to men by Thy baptism, O greatly merciful God, Who on this day didst receive thy favorite, the godly Marcian, from earth into ineffable glory.
Theotokion: In manner past understanding, O Virgin, thou didst contain the Uncontainable One. And the Forerunner, when he was about to baptize Him, was filled with awe, and trembling, cried out: “O Christ Who art fire, consume me not who hymn Thee with love!”
Seeing thee arrayed in royal vesture when thou didst serve as priest, O most blessed father, the sacred people were astonished and together hymned Christ, the King of all.
