Irmos: The staff of Moses, once working a wonder, striking the sea in the form of the Cross and dividing it, drowned the mounted tyrant Pharaoh, and saved Israel who fled on foot, chanting a hymn unto God.
Katavasia: I will open my mouth…
As a most fervent preacher of repentance, O father Chrysostom, pray to God that I be able to repent with all my heart, and beg thou that, through thy suffering, the wounds of mine ancient transgressions may be healed.
Theotokion: All-adorned with divers forms of grace, O divinely joyous and blessed one, thou gavest birth to the Word of the Father Who, in His great compassion, in manner past understanding and recounting, became flesh; and thou didst remain a Virgin undefiled.
Receiving all the effulgence of the Holy Spirit, O venerable father, thou wast shown to be a most radiant pillar going before the Church to guide it, and a luminous cloud overshadowing the councils of the Orthodox, O most blessed one.
A teacher ordained by Christ, with golden tongue and divinely wise mind thou didst abundantly pour forth divine doctrines; for thou wast shown to be a river of God full of the waters of the Spirit, O divinely manifest Chrysostom.
