Irmos: With Thy divine light illumine the souls of those who with love rise at dawn unto Thee, I pray 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.
Theotokion: Desiring to save corrupted human nature from corruption, the Lord and Creator made His abode within the womb of the pure one, ineffably forming Himself therein.
Enduring wounds for many long years, O most wise one, thou didst suffer greatly; and now thou hast inherited the everlasting sweetness of incorruptible blessedness.
Making a steadfast faith thine anchor, and hope and love thy foundation, thou didst erect thyself as a temple consecrated to the worshipful Trinity, O father who art most rich.
The divinely adorned and all-radiant man struggled in the arena of suffering, receiving everlasting life; and he joineth chorus and rejoiceth with the angels.
