Saint John Chrysostom, Archbishop of Constantinople - Troparion & Kontakion

Troparion — Tone 8

Grace shining forth from your mouth like a beacon has illumined the inhabited earth; / it has disclosed to the world treasures which wealth cannot buy; / and has set forth for us the height of humility. / Instructing us by your words, O Father John Chrysostom, / intercede with the Word, Christ God, that our souls may be saved.

Kontakion — Tone 2

(Podoben: “When You had fulfilled Your dispensation for our sakes”1...)
You received divine grace from Heaven, / and by your lips you teach all men to worship the one God in Trinity, / O most blessed Venerable John Chrysostom. / We praise you, as is meet, / for you are a guide, making divine things clear.


1 Kontakion for the Ascension.
