Byzantine Vespers: St. Nicholas



Byzantine Vespers: St. Nicholas


Let us come together, O feast-lovers, and praise in paeans the comeliness of Bishops, the pride of the fathers, and the fountain of miracles, the great helper of believers, saying, Rejoice, O watchman of the people of Myra, their revered leader and unshakeable pillar. Rejoice, O effulgent star, lighting the utmost corners of the world with miracles. Rejoice intercede with Christ God on behalf of those who ever honor, O divine joy of the sorrowful, all-zealous champion of the oppressed. Wherefore, now, O all-beatified Nicholas, you still faithfully and eagerly celebrate your all-festive and joyful memory.
