¶1
Irmos: Let us chant unto the Lord, Who led His people through the Red Sea, for He alone hath gloriously been glorified.
¶2
Let Thy glorious athlete and his all-honored memory be praised with sacred hymns, for he hath been glorified with unapproachable glory.
¶3
Theotokion: O pure Theotokos, we hymn thee who gavest birth to the incarnate Word, eternal and all-divine, in manner transcending nature.
¶4
Waging the contest of martyrdom in the weakness of thy flesh even unto the shedding of thy blood, thou didst not stumble and fall, O warrior of Christ.
¶5
Thou wast adorned with the wounds of martyrdom, shining with luster greater than that of gold and precious stones, O holy one.
