Receive my unworthy prayer, Most Pure Theotokos. Keep me from sudden death, and grant me repentance before the end.
Canon to the Theotokos
Most Holy Theotokos, save us!
O Virgin, do not disdain those who need your help, hymning and exalting you forever.
Most Holy Theotokos, save us!
You heal the infirmities of my soul and the illnesses of my body, O Virgin, that I may glorify you, O Pure One, forever.
Most Holy Theotokos, save us!
You pour an abundance of healing, O Virgin, on those who hymn you with faith and exalt your inexpressible birth-giving.
Most Holy Theotokos, save us!
You chase away the wiles of temptation and the onsets of passions, O Virgin. We therefore hymn you forever.
