Rights-risk acceptedServed

¶1

Irmos: To God Who overthrew Pharaoh in the Red Sea let us chant a hymn of victory, for He hath been glorified.

¶2

Having cleansed my mind of the passions of benighted thought, illumine it, that it may hymn Amos Thy prophet, O Master.

¶3

Theotokion: In accordance with prophecy, O all-pure one, thou didst restore the fallen tabernacle of Adam, having borne God the Savior in thy womb.

¶4

Manifest as an initiate of the mysteries of God which pass understanding, O glorious one, thou wast counted worthy to see beyond the things of the present.

¶5

Shown to be an undefiled and pure resting-place of God, O Amos, thou didst receive the divine activity of the Spirit.
