Exapostilarion —
Irmos: Every ear trembleth to hear of the ineffable condescension of God, for the Most High willingly came down even to the flesh, becoming man through the Virgin’s womb. Wherefore, we, the faithful, magnify the all-pure Theotokos.
On the Praises, 4 stichera idiomela, in Tone VIII —
Theotokion: O Mother of God who gavest birth to salvation for the world, by thy supplications save me from the multifarious and nefarious temptations which assail me; for upon thee have I, thy servant, faithfully set my hope of salvation.
O Tychon, accept this sacred hymnody offered unto thee from unworthy lips, in recompense granting the deliverance from sins through thy supplications to God; for thee do all of us who faithfully honor thy memory set forth as our advocate.
Irmos: Saved by thee, O pure Virgin, we confess thee to be in truth the Theotokos, magnify thee with the incorporeal choirs.
Strengthened by divine power, thou didst hew down the passions of the senses with the axes of abstinence, living a blameless life in the wilderness, O all-glorious one; wherefore, God hath enriched thee with the gift of miracles. Him do thou entreat, that our souls be saved.
Theotokion: O all-hymned Virgin who gavest birth unto God in the flesh, show forth those who glorify thee as ones who share in the divine light, and by thy supplications deliver us from the fire of Gehenna and from all the harm of the enemy.
The pure and all-holy Spirit anointed thee with the oil of gladness, O all-glorious one, adorned thee with a multitude of gifts, and vouchsafed thee to reign with Him gloriously, O most hallowed Tychon, adornment and boast of priests.
Thou hast been shown to be a pure vessel pouring forth a stream of healings, O adornment of fasters, strengthening of monastics, boast and confirmation of the city of Kluge, Tikhon our venerable father.
Glory…, Now & ever…: Theotokion —
O thy gracious miracles, O sacred Tychon! The tongue of man cannot recount what he hath seen! For the shoot of the vine which before was desiccated hath now, at thy ready gesture, all-gloriously put forth ripe grapes!
O venerable father Tikhon, having diligently exercised thyself in virtue from childhood, thou becamest an instrument of the Holy Spirit; and receiving the ability to work miracles from Him, thou art now illumined with divine light. Enlighten also our hearts and minds, and pray that our souls may be saved.
Now & ever…: Theotokion —
By thy supplications grant me victory over the passions, I pray, O Tychon, and vouchsafe that I who bless thee ardently with love may obtain the love of God and the delight of good things, and may receive His beauties.
Thy radiant and God-pleasing life hath truly been shown to be like light on earth, O blessed Tikhon our father; wherefore, thou hast forsaken all things visible, and hast been accounted worthy to behold the Unapproachable One. Him do thou beseech, O venerable one, that our souls be saved.
In the depths of thy tears thou didst drown the serpent, the author of evil, O venerable father Tikhon, and as an excellent victor thou hast ascended to the heavens, where with the choirs of the angels thou dost unceasingly glorify the God of all.
Glory…, in Tone VI —
Thou wast possessed of a guileless life and wast adorned with the sweat of suffering, O all-praised and venerable father Tikhon; wherefore, thy spirit was filled with joy divine.
In the wilderness thou didst piously lead a life which was adorned with the virtues, and wast crowned with fasting and prayer as with a divine crown; and thou now standest before the throne of the Master, joining chorus with the armies of the angels. Wherefore, we honor thee in hymns, O Tikhon our venerable father. Pray thou that our souls may be saved.
Arrayed as with a royal crown, the city of Kaluga boasteth in thee, O our venerable father Tikhon, having thy relics within its environs as a goodly guardian given it by the Lord.
O Theotokos, thou art the true vine who hast budded forth for us the Fruit of life. Entreat Him with our venerable father Tikhon and all the saints, we pray thee, O Mistress, that our souls find mercy.
Thou didst endure the gloom of night and didst bear the burden of the burning heat of day; wherefore thou hast received everlasting delight, O blessed Tikhon, favorite of Christ. Pray thou that our souls be saved.
After God it is in thee that we place our trust, O all-holy Virgin Theotokos; and we pray to thee: By thine entreaties to thy Son and our God, preserve us utterly unharmed.
