Resurrectional Apolytikion
By Your Cross, O Christ our God, You destroyed death. You opened paradise to the thief. You transformed the lament of the Myrrh-bearing women, and You commanded the Apostles to proclaim You are risen, granting the world Your great mercy. -Translation by Narthex Press

Apolytikion for The Holy and Glorious Apostle Andrew the First-called
As the first-called of the Apostles, and brother of their leader, O Andrew, entreat the Master of all that peace be granted unto the world and great mercy to our souls. -Translation by Holy Transfiguration Monastery, Brookline, MA

Apolytikion of the Church
Blessed are You, O Christ our God. Who by sending down, the Holy Spirit upon them, made the fishermen wise and through them, illumined the world. And to You, the universe is ever drawn, Glory to You, O lover of mankind.

Kontakion
Today, the Virgin bears Him who is transcendent, and the earth presents the cave to Him who is beyond reach. Angels, along with shepherds glorify Him. The Magi make their way to Him by a star. For a new child has been born for us, the God before all ages. -Translation by Narthex Press
