Song 1
Irmos: As Israel walked on the dry land, with footsteps in the abyss, seeing the persecutor Pharaoh drowned, we sing a song of victory to God, crying out.
Lord Jesus Christ
Have mercy on me, God, have mercy on me.
Now I, a sinner and burdened, have come to You, my Master and God; I don’t dare look at the sky, I just pray with the verb: give me, Lord, mind, so that I may weep bitterly for my deeds.
Have mercy on me, God, have mercy on me.
Oh, woe to me, a sinner! I am more damned than all other people; there is no repentance in me; Give me, Lord, tears, so that I may weep bitterly for my deeds.
Have mercy on me, God, have mercy on me.
Foolishly, wretched man, you waste time in laziness; think about your life, and turn to the Lord God, and weep bitterly for your affairs.
Have mercy on me, God, have mercy on me.
Most Pure Mother of God, look at me, a sinner, and deliver me from the snare of the devil, and guide me on the path of repentance, so that I may weep bitterly for my deeds.
Holy Mother of God
Most Holy Theotokos, save us.
We suffer from many misfortunes, I resort to You, seeking salvation: Oh, Mother of the Word and the Virgin, save me from heavy and cruel ones.
Most Holy Theotokos, save us.
Passions confuse me, and many despondencies fill my soul; die, O Young Lady, with the silence of the Son and Thy God, O All-Immaculate One.
Most Holy Theotokos, save us.
Who gave birth to You and God, I pray, Virgin, to be delivered from the cruel ones: for now, running to You, I extend both my soul and my thoughts.
Most Holy Theotokos, save us.
Sick in body and soul, visits from the Divine and provision from You, the only God of God, as the Good Mother of the Good.
Guardian Angel
Lord Jesus Christ, my God, have mercy on me.
Sing a song and praise, O Savior, Your servant is worthy of the likeness of the disembodied Angel, my mentor and Guardian.
Holy Angel of God, my guardian, pray to God for me.
Only I now lie in foolishness and laziness, my mentor and Guardian, do not leave me, perishing.
Glory: Direct my mind with your prayer, do God’s commandments, so that I may receive remission of sins from God, and teach me to hate the evil ones, I pray to you.
And now: Pray, O Maiden, for me, Thy servant, to the Benefactor, with my guardian Angel, and instruct me to do the commandments of Thy Son and my Creator.
Song 3
Irmos: There is nothing holy like You, O Lord my God, Who has lifted up the horn of Your faithful, O Good One, and established us on the rock of Your confession.
Have mercy on me, God, have mercy on me.
Someday thrones will be established at the Last Judgment, then the deeds of all people will be exposed; woe will be the sinner who is sent to torment; and then you know, my soul, repent of your evil deeds.
Have mercy on me, God, have mercy on me.
The righteous will rejoice, and the sinners will weep, then no one will be able to help us, but our deeds will condemn us; Moreover, before the end, repent of your evil deeds.
Have mercy on me, God, have mercy on me.
Woe to me, the great sinner, who have been defiled by deeds and thoughts, and have not a drop of tears from hard-heartedness; now arise from the earth, my soul, and repent from your evil deeds.
Most Holy Theotokos, save us.
Behold, O Lord, Thy Son calls us, and teaches us to do good, but I, a sinner, always run from goodness; but You, O Merciful One, have mercy on me, so that I may repent of my evil deeds.
Most Holy Theotokos, save us.
I entrust the representation and cover of my life to Thee, the Virgin Mother of God: You feed me to Thy refuge, You are guilty of good things; true statement, the All-Singing One.
Most Holy Theotokos, save us.
I pray, Virgin, to destroy my spiritual confusion and sorrows in the storm: for you, O Blessed One of God, gave birth to the ruler of the silence of Christ, the only Most Pure One.
Most Holy Theotokos, save us.
Having given birth to the good of the guilty, the benefactor has given birth to wealth to everyone, for all you can, as you have given birth to the mighty one in the fortress of Christ, O blessed One.
Most Holy Theotokos, save us.
Help me with fierce ailments and painful passions, O Virgin, for I know your inexhaustible treasure, Most Immaculate, Inexhaustible.
Holy Angel of God, my guardian, pray to God for me.
I place all my thoughts and my soul towards you, my guardian; Deliver me from every misfortune of the enemy.
Holy Angel of God, my guardian, pray to God for me.
The enemy tramples me, and embitters me, and teaches me to always do my own desires; but you, my mentor, do not leave me perishing.
Glory: Let me sing a song with gratitude and zeal to the Creator and God, and to you, my good Guardian Angel: my deliverer, rescue me from the enemies who embitter me.
And now: Heal, O Most Pure One, my much-worn scabs, even in my soul, the enemies who constantly fight with me.
Lord, have mercy. (Three times).
Sedalen
I think about the terrible day and weep for the deeds of my evil ones: how will I answer the Immortal King, or with what boldness will I look at the Judge, you prodigal one? Gracious Father, Only Begotten Son and Holy Soul, have mercy on me.
Glory: From the love of my soul I cry out to you, the guardian of my soul, my all-holy Angel: cover me and keep me from the evil trap always, and guide me to life in heaven, admonishing and enlightening and strengthening me.
And now: To the Mother of God, Blessed, Most Pure, Who without seed gave birth to all the Lord, Pray to Him with my Guardian Angel, to rid me of all bewilderment, and to give tenderness and light to my soul and sin is cleansed, even though one quickly intercedes.
Song 4
Irmos: Christ is my strength, God and Lord, the Honest Church sings divinely, crying out from a pure meaning, celebrating the Lord.
Have mercy on me, God, have mercy on me.
The path here is wide and pleasing to create sweets, but it will be bitter on the last day, when the soul will be separated from the body: beware of these, men, of the Kingdom for the sake of God.
Have mercy on me, God, have mercy on me.
Why do you offend the poor, withhold bribes from a mercenary, dislike your brother, persecute fornication and pride? Forsake this, my soul, and repent of the Kingdom for the sake of God.
Have mercy on me, God, have mercy on me.
O foolish man, how long will you scrabble like a bee, collecting your wealth? Soon he will perish like dust and ashes: but seek more the Kingdom of God.
Most Holy Theotokos, save us.
Lady Theotokos, have mercy on me, a sinner, and strengthen me in virtue, and keep me, so that insolent death does not snatch me away unprepared, and bring me, O Virgin, to the Kingdom of God.
Most Holy Theotokos, save us.
The confusion of my passions, the helmsman who gave birth to the Lord, and the storm that calmed my sins, O Bride of God.
Most Holy Theotokos, save us.
I call upon the abyss of Thy mercy to wait for me, Who gave birth to the Blessed One and the Savior of all who sing Thee.
Most Holy Theotokos, save us.
Enjoying, O Most Pure One, Your gifts, we sing songs of thanksgiving, Our Lady leading You.
Most Holy Theotokos, save us.
On the bed of my illness and infirmity I am cast down, as God-loving, help, O Theotokos, the only Ever-Virgin.
Most Holy Theotokos, save us.
We give hope and affirmation and salvation to the immovable wall of You, the All-Singing One, from every inconvenience we get rid of.
Holy Angel of God, my guardian, pray to God for me.
Pray to God, the Lover of Mankind, my guardian, and do not forsake me, but keep my life everlasting in the world and grant me irresistible salvation.
Holy Angel of God, my guardian, pray to God for me.
As the intercessor and guardian of my life, you are received from God, Angel, I pray, holy one, to free me from all troubles.
Glory: Cleanse my filthiness with your holiness, my Guardian, and may I be excommunicated from a part of Shuiya by your prayers and become a partaker of glory.
And now: I am bewildered by the evils that have befallen me, O Most Pure One, but deliver me from them quickly: for I alone have come to You.
