¶1
Irmos: The King of heaven, Whom the hosts of angels hymn, praise and exalt ye supremely for all ages!
¶2
Thou didst endure wounding to the end, O all-blessed warrior of Christ, and didst pass over, rejoicing, to the kingdom on high.
¶3
Theotokion: O Theotokos, intercessor for Christians: rescue us from all want, that we may hymn thee for all ages.
¶4
Because of Christ thou wast not put to shame, O thou of valiant mind, enduring divers torments; wherefore, thou hast been glorified for all ages.
¶5
As one crowned, truly dancing with the athletes around the King, remember those who celebrate thy memory with faith.
