Unto Thee Who mediated the Salvation
of our race, we sing praises, O Virgin
Theotokos. For Thy Son and our
God in the Flesh that He assumed
from Thee, accepted Suffering by
means of Crucifixion and has
thereby set us free from corruption,
in His Love for mankind.
THE GREAT TONE 4
Thou devoutly followed Christ by
Ascetic Deeds, O Venerable
Athanasios; and Thou hast become a
model for all Monastics who in
Holiness Live the Ascetic Life, O
Glorious Fther. But now that by
Godly Trials Thou hast attained the
Palaces Above, do not cease
Interceing or the Salvation of our
soul.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit, now and
forever, and to the Ages of ages.
Amen

Do
not enter into Judgement with me, O
Christ; for I know that my faults
accuse me, and I cry out to Thee:
Have Mercy on me according to the
Prayers of Her who bore Thee, as
humble and unworthy as I am, as
Thou had on the Thie, the Harlot,
the Prodigal and the Publican, O
Lover of mankind, for Thou did not

those who had fallen.

the Death of Thy Saint was
Precious in Thy Sight, O Christ, for
behold: from his foot, Thy servant
made a Spring of Blood gush out,
and after death, it drives out every
kind of sickness, and puts to flight
the spirits of wickedness with which,
while still alive, he had battled
against even to his shedding of
blood.
Praise Him with timbrel and dance;
praise Him with strings and pipe
O All Wise Athanasios, our Lord has
revealed the Casket of Thy Relics as
a Souce of Wonders, and a River of
Gifts for mortals granting sight to
the blind, curing leprosy, and
elephantiasis, Delivering those who
are possessed by unclean spirit from
their power, and restores their
sanity.
Praise Him with tuneful cymbals;
praise Him with loud cymbals. Let
everything that has breath praise
the Lord
Hail, O Glory of Ascetics, Star of Monks,
Boast of Shepherds! O Father
Athanasios, Companion of Saints!
Hail, O Source of Love and Sobrity!
Hail, O Dwelling of the Trinity! Hail,
O Radiant Lamp of Discernment!
Hail, O Straightest rule of Virtures,
nd Living Boundary Stone.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit.
Let us all praise the one whose name
means Immortality, who Lived as
an Ascetic, Bravely and Nobly on
Mount Athos; who gathered this
Flock, and with Love raised up a
House of our Lord, and dedicated it
to the Mother of God. With Her, he
Intercedes for us who with Faith,
celebrate his memory.
Now and ever, and to the Ages of
ages.
