TROPARION

St. Theodosius the Coenobiarch, Troparion, Tone VIII —
With the streams of thy tears thou didst irrigate the barren desert,/ and with sighs from the depths of thy soul thou didst render thy labors fruitful an hundredfold./ Thou wast a beacon for the whole world, radiating miracles.// O our father Theodosius, entreat Christ God that our souls be saved.

Theophany of our Lord, Troparion, Tone I —
When Thou, O Lord, wast baptized in the Jordan,/ the worship of the Trinity was made manifest;/ for, the voice of the Father bare witness unto Thee,/ calling Thee His beloved Son;/ and the Spirit in the form of a dove/ confirmed the certainty of His word./ O Christ our God, Who hast appeared and enlightened the worlds,// glory be to Thee!

Kontakion of the Feast, Tone IV —
Thou hast appeared today to the whole world,/ and Thy light, O Lord, hath been signed upon us/ who hymn Thee with understanding./ Thou hast come, Thou hast appeared,/ the Light unapproachable.

Kontakion to the Venerable One, Tone VIII, "To thee the Champion Leader" —
Planted in the courts of thy Lord, thou didst flourish most beauteously in thy venerable virtues,/ and didst increase in number thy children in the desert,/ watering them with the torrents of thy tears, O godly chief shepherd of the flocks divine.// Wherefore, we cry out: Rejoice, O father Theodosius!
