Irmos: I will sacrifice to Thee with a voice of praise, O Lord, the Church crieth unto Thee, cleansed of the blood of demons by the blood which, for mercy’s sake, flowed from Thy side.
Sessional hymn, in Tone IV: Spec. Mel.: “Go thou quickly before…”—
Thou hast slept the sleep of the blessed, O blessed father, and even after death wast shown to hearken unto those who questioned thee, for thou didst possess obedience which dieth not.
Theotokion: With faith do we glorify thee as the true Theotokos, who didst conceive God and gavest birth without knowing wedlock to Him Who of thee fashioned a pleasing holy temple.
Having finished thy good struggles, O divinely wise namesake of incorruption, thou wast truly vouchsafed immortality, where, rejoicing, thou hast received crowns of victory.
The divine, goodly and God-pleasing asceticism of thy life, O blessed Acacius, maketh many steadfast by fear of God and the expectation of the good things which are to come.
By the radiance of faith and active light thou wast truly shown to be angelic on earth, O most wise Acacius. Thou didst manfully show forth the strength of thy mind and by fasting didst put down the assaults of the passions. Wherefore, even after thy repose thou wast shown to be like one alive, O invincible one.
