O great saint, glorious miracle-worker, primate of the Russian Church, guardian of the city of Moscow and zealous prayer book for all of us, our Father Peter! We humbly fall to you and pray: stretch out your hands to the Lord God and pray for us, sinners and unworthy servants of His, may He add to us His mercy and bestow on us all the gifts of His goodness that we need for our temporary life and eternal salvation, and especially yes protects us with peace, brotherly love and piety from all the temptations of the enemy the devil, and grants us to be your faithful child not only by name, but also by all our life. We pray to you, Saint of Christ, through your heavenly intercession, preserve our most pious, autocratic, great sovereign, Emperor Nicholas Alexandrovich of all Russia, in health and prosperity for many years, subduing under his nose all his enemies and adversaries, and may your blessing rest on him, anciently to his ancestor, the Grand Duke John, given by you. Hey, servant of God!
Hear us kindly, and be a helper and intercessor to all of us in all troubles and misfortunes, do not forget us even at the hour of our death, when we most of all demand your intercession: so that through the prayers of your saints we may also receive a good death and inherit the Kingdom of Heaven, glorifying our wondrous God in His saints, the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, forever and ever.
