A complete Orthodox prayer book. For every need

Troparion, tone 8:

Angels reverently serve Thee, and all the Heavenly powers glorify Thee with silent voices, O Virgin Theotokos; we fervently beseech Thee, O Lady, that Divine grace may abide upon Thy precious Sovereign Icon, and that the radiant ray of glory of Thy miracles may descend from it upon all who pray to Thee with faith and cry out to God: Alleluia.

Kontakion, tone 8:

To the Chosen Commander we offer Victorious songs, for Thy power has been granted to us, and we fear nothing, for our salvation is not from the world, but we guard ourselves against the exalted Lady in mercy, and to this day we rejoice, for the Intercessor has come to guard Her land.

Prayer:

O Protectress of peace, All-Sung Mother!

There is no other help for Thee, O Most-Pure Virgin. Thou art the all-powerful intercessor of Christians before God, softening His righteous wrath.

Amen.

Prayer before the icon "Surety of Sinners" (March 7/20)

Troparion, tone 4:

Now all despondency is silent and the fear of despair disappears, sinners in the sorrow of their hearts find consolation and are illumined with heavenly love: for today the Mother of God stretches out to us a saving hand and speaks from Her Most Pure image, saying: I am the Surety of sinners to My Son, He gave Me a hand to hear Me for them. The same people, burdened with many sins, fall down at the foot of Her icon with tears, crying out: O Intercessor of the world, the Surety of sinners, beseech the Deliverer of all with Motherly prayers, that He may cover our sins with Divine forgiveness, and open the bright doors of paradise to us, for Thou art the intercession and salvation of the Christian race.
