Venerable Ephraim the Syrian - Troparion & Kontakion
Troparion — Tone 8
By a flood of tears you made the desert fertile, / and your longing for God brought forth fruits in abundance. / By the radiance of miracles you illumined the whole universe! / Our Father Ephraim, pray to Christ God to save our souls!
Kontakion — Tone 2
Ever anticipating the hour of Judgment, / you lamented bitterly, venerable Ephraim. / Through your deeds you were a teacher by example; / therefore, universal Father, you rouse the slothful to repentance.
