Oh, our good shepherd and God-wise mentor, Saint Nicholas of Christ! Hear us sinners (names), praying to you and calling for your quick intercession for help; see us weak, caught from everywhere, deprived of every good and darkened in mind from cowardice; Try, O saint of God, not to leave us in sinful captivity, so that we may not joyfully be our enemies and not die in our evil deeds. Pray for us, unworthy of our Creator and Master, to whom you stand with the disembodied faces: be merciful to us by our God in this life and in the future, so that He will not reward us according to our deeds and according to the impurity of our hearts, but according to his goodness he will reward us.
We trust in your intercession, we boast of your intercession, we call upon your intercession for help, and we fall to your most holy image for help: deliver us, saint of Christ, from evils coming upon us, and tame the waves of passions and troubles that rise against us, so that for the sake of your holy prayers they will not attack us and we will not sink into the abyss of sin and in the mud of our passions. Pray to Saint Nicholas of Christ, Christ our God, that He will grant us a peaceful life and remission of sins, and salvation and great mercy for our souls, now and ever and unto the ages centuries. Amen.
