Resurrectional Apolytikion Plagal of the Fourth Tone
O Merciful One, You came from on high, and condescended to Your three day burial to save us from suffering. You are our Life and our Resurrection. Glory to You. -Translation by Narthex Press

Apolytikion for All Saints
Your Church, O Christ our God, clothed itself in the blood of Your martyrs from throughout the world, as though it were a robe of linen and purple; through them, she cries out to You, "Send down upon Your people compassion, grant peace to Your commonwealth, and to our souls, great mercy." -Translation by Narthex Press

Apolytikion of the Church
Liberator of Captives, Defender of the Poor, Physician of the Sick and Champion of Kings, O Trophy-Bearer Saint Martyr George, interceed with Christ our God, that our souls be saved.

Kontakion
The world offers You, the author of all creation, as the first-fruits of nature, the God-bearing martyrs. O most merciful, by their intercessions, through the Theotokos, maintain Your Church in perfect peace. - Translation by Narthex Press
