O sacred head, our strong prayer book and intercessor, our holy saint Stephen! Hear us, calling you with faith and love. Remember us at the throne of the Almighty and do not stop praying for us. By your intercession I have asked from our most merciful Savior the peace of His Church, God's shepherd zeal and strength, our most pious king wisdom and prosperity, our more Orthodox country peace and salvation. Beg the Heavenly Father to give everyone the gift that everyone needs: true faith, firm hope, unsparing love, the establishment of our cities, peace of peace, deliverance from famine and destruction, preservation from the invasion of foreigners, good growth in faith for the young, for the old and weak comfort and strength, healing for the sick, mercy and intercession for the orphans and widows, help for the needy.
Do not disgrace us in our hope, make haste, as a loving father, for us to bear the good yoke of Christ in complacency and patience, and guide us all in peace and repentance, unashamedly live our end and be heirs of the Kingdom of God, where you are now living with the Angels and by all the saints, praising God, glorified in the Trinity, the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, forever and ever.
