Troparion, tone 4

Having despised the glory of the kingdom of the earth, / You loved the One Christ, for our sake crucified, / and, Who courageously confessed, / You were crowned with the crown of martyrdom, / all-blessed Queen Alexandro./ Even now we stand before the Throne of the King of Glory in Heaven, // praying for the salvation of our souls.

Kontakion, voice 2

Your all-honorable temple, / as all faiths have found spiritual healing, / we cry loudly to you, / to the martyr Alexandro, the great one // of Christ God, pray unceasingly for all of us.

This is true, since apart from grace-filled help we can do no good, we ask you for this help from the Lord. For you, holy passion-bearer, have gained great boldness towards the Master, for having glorified Him in the purity of your soul and in your body through your suffering, you have renounced glory and honor this world, having loved the wealth and praise of Christ. Moreover, from that wealth and our poverty, the spiritual gift of gift, and from immeasurable sins, preserve our lives, obtain peace and serenity for us, protect us from need and despondency by Your intercession, friend Instruct us in obedience and brotherly love and always lift up the eyes of our hearts to the Lord, so that we may glorify the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, the power, and your warm intercession, forever centuries. Amen.
