Irmos: The Chaldæan furnace, burning with fire, was bedewed by the Spirit through the presence of God; and the children chanted: Blessed art Thou, O God of our fathers!
Theotokion: The Fruit of thy womb, O Virgin Theotokos, poureth forth immortality upon those who partake thereof; for, having given birth unto God, thou hast released Eve from her debt.
As thou wast a divine mouth, thou madest worthy men out of the unworthy, O most wondrous Tychon. Wherefore, Christ hath truly glorified thee with miracles even after thy repose.

Theotokion: The mind of man is at a loss how to understand the ineffable depths of thy birthgiving, O pure one; for, abasing Himself in His loving-kindness, God hath made me wholly new by His incarnation.

Thou didst struggle manfully in the wilderness and, receiving the effulgence of the Spirit, wast caught up to the heights of heaven, O venerable father Tikhon, where thou art now glorified with the angels.
In the wilderness thou didst curb thy tongue with silence, O Tikhon our father, and thou didst lead an untroubled life like an angel in the flesh.
Truly thou hast been accounted worthy of a good life, O venerable father Tikhon, obtaining it through purity and asceticism; and now thou standest before God with the ranks of the incorporeal beings.
