(August 28)
Incomprehensible and All-Singing Wisdom of God, Sophia the Preeminent, virgin souls, that is, the Only Begotten Son, the Word of God, receive prayerful singing from unworthy and profane lips ours.
Even if it is written: the song is not sweet in the mouth of sinners, but the thief was saved by a word alone, the publican was justified by groaning, and the daughter of Canaan was healed by a mother’s petition, because of You, Lord, Good and Lover of Mankind, you enlighten those who come into the world, and forgive the sins of sinners, and fill the minds of the foolish, and make them wise, and teach souls thirsting for good words To yours, as to the Samaritans, you have given living water to drink, you have made the fornicator chaste, you have opened paradise to the thief, you are the Giver of all good things, and the Enlightener, and the Guardian of life, Christ our God, and to You we send glory and praise, honor and thanksgiving and glorification, and we do worship with Your Beginning Father, and with the Most Holy and Good, and with Your Life-giving Spirit, and with Your Most Holy and Immaculate Matter, our Lady Theotokos and Ever-Virgin Mary, now and ever, and unto the ages of ages. Amen.
