The Protection of the Theotokos - Kontakion from the Akathist
✅ Donate towards our social work:
✏ On October 1 (October 14 according to the Gregorian calendar), the Church celebrates a great holiday – the Protection of the Mother of God. It is believed that one of the probable reasons for the establishment of the holiday was the miraculous deliverance of the Orthodox city of Constantinople from a brutal raid of Saracens; however, there are also theories that Constantinople was rescued from the pagan barbarian Russians at that time. Be that as it may, it was thanks to the prayers of the Mother of God and Her holy intercession for the Christian nation that the huge city was delivered from imminent bloodshed.
✏ This is a chant performed by the Festive Choir of St. Elisabeth Convent. It is a kontakion from the Akathist to the Protection of the Theotokos.
✏ The TEXT of the chant: O all-praised Mother, Most pure Lady, Virgin, Theotokos, to Thee do I lift up the eyes of my soul and body, to Thee do I stretch forth my hands grown feeble and I cry from the depth of my heart: look down on the faith and humility of my soul; shelter me with Thy almighty protection, that I be saved from all assault and distress, and in the hour of my death, be by me, O Thou all-blessed, and deliver me from the torment prepared for me because of my sins, that, venerating Thee, I may ever cry: Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
