Our God-chosen High Hierarch and saint of Christ, Vasily, glorified by the holiness of your life, the wonderful navigation on the waters and the incorruption of your relics! Standing before the throne of the Almighty and having great boldness towards Him, pray to Him to add His mercy to us sinners and unworthy servants of His, and grant to our most pious sovereign, Emperor Nikolai Alexandrovich, health, longevity and good haste in everything: may He give spiritual sobriety and zeal for the salvation of the flock to the shepherd of the Church: for the mayor and judges the fear of God, righteousness and selflessness: for the warrior patience, courage and victory over enemies: for the supremacists mutual love, loyalty and like-mindedness: I will buy righteousness for the active, hard work and sobriety for the farmer, charity for the orphan, healing for the sick, intercession for the offended, justification for the slandered, and for all the people of your flock everything needed for temporal and eternal life.
Above all, pray to the Lord, our prayer book, to forgive us every sin, voluntary and involuntary, and to cleanse us from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit: to deliver us from the snares of the age-old enemy, the hater and murderer, and to preserve us from human slander; the soul-destroying teachings of flattering spirits, acting in this regard in the sons of disobedience: may the things on high, and not those on earth, teach us to be wise, not those of the earth, to protect our hearts from being seduced by the reds of this world. Pray, our Father, to the All-All and Divine Spirit, that the light of His grace may shine upon our brethren according to the flesh, who sit in the darkness of false faith, and may they come to know Christ, the True God, the Only Savior of all people: may this light shine upon those wandering on the crossroads of the schism, may they come to their senses and come to the fence of the Orthodox The Church, which alone undoubtedly brings about the eternal salvation of the faithful. O Saint of Christ, our prayer book!
Pray to Christ God and His Most Pure Mother, that He may abolish our enmity and discord, and unite us all with God-like love, and in peace and unity, with a burning desire for salvation, working for the Lord, bearing each other’s burdens, fighting a good deed, and ending the course, having reached the quiet refuge of the Heavenly Kingdom, and glorifying the ineffable love for mankind and mercy of our Savior, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, with His Beginningless Father and the Most Holy Spirit, forever and ever.
