My savior! You laid down Your life for us to save us; You commanded us to lay down our souls for our friends, for those close to us. I joyfully go to fulfill Your holy will and lay down my life for the Tsar and the Fatherland. Arm me with strength and courage to defeat our enemies, and grant me to die with firm faith and hope of eternal blissful life in Your Kingdom.
Mother of God! Keep me under Your protection. Amen.
