Resurrectional Apolytikion
O Faithful, let us sing a hymn of praise and worship to the Logos, coeternal with the Father and the Spirit, who was born of the Virgin for our salvation. Of His own will He went upon the Cross in the flesh and suffered death, to raise the dead through His glorious Resurrection. -Translation by Narthex Press

Apolytikion for Theodore the Tyro, Great Martyr
Great are the achievements of faith! In the fountain of flame, as by the water of rest, the holy Martyr Theodore rejoiced; for having been made a whole-burnt offering in the fire, he was offered as sweet bread unto the Trinity. By his prayers, O Christ God, save our souls. - Translation by Holy Transfiguration Monastery

Apolytikion of the Church
An example of the faith and a life of humility, as a teacher of abstinence you did inspire and lead your flock; and through truthfulness of your deeds were exalted by greatness, through your humility uplifting all and by poverty gaining wealth, Father Hierarch Nicholas, intercede with Christ God that our souls may be saved.

Kontakion
Let us flee from the boasting of the Pharisee and learn through our own sighs of sorrow the humility of the Publican. Let us cry out to the Savior, "Have mercy on us, for through You alone are we reconciled." - Translation by Narthex Press
