Irmos: When I was troubled, I cried unto the Lord, and the God of my salvation hearkened unto me.
Katavasia: The elder, beholding with his own eyes the salvation which was come to me from God, cried out to Thee, O Christ! Thou art my God!
Kontakion, in Tone III—
Theotokion: If thou dost not stretch forth thy hands unto us, O Mother of God, we will have no way to escape the pit of destruction; wherefore, we cry to thee: Save us, O Mistress!
Pilot us, who are imperiled on the sea of life, O blessed one, guiding us to the right calm haven, and praying to Him Who alone is able to save us.
Desiring to do good deeds, we commit evils; and though we know the commandments of God, we neglect them and sin. Help us who are weak, O kind-hearted Xenia.
In our behalf cry out with a mighty voice to the Lord Whom thou didst serve, O Xenia, as Moses did in the wilderness; and God, Who desireth to save men, will hearken unto thee.
Abiding on earth like a stranger, and sighing for the heavenly homeland, thou wast accounted a fool by the foolish and unbelieving, but art acknowledged by the faithful as all-wise and holy; and thou art crowned by God with glory and honor, O Xenia of manly mind and divine understanding. Wherefore, we cry out to thee: Rejoice, for after thine earthly sojourn thou dwellest in the house of thy Father!
Ikos: Who is this who knocketh on the gates of the kingdom of heaven, whose raiment is white, and whose face shineth more brightly than the sun? Whence cometh she, and what doth she demand? She is the daughter of the heavenly Father, the faithful handmaid of the Son of God, the chosen vessel of the Holy Spirit, who wandered the earth as a stranger. She now is translated to the kingdom of heaven. Wherefore, open the gates unto her, and greet her with gladness, crying: Rejoice, O Xenia, for after thine earthly sojourn thou dwellest in the house of thy Father!
