Akathist to Archangel Michael

Kontakion 5

Archangel Michael, you appeared in the Church of Khony as a divinely flowing fountain of great miracles. Not only was a large and fearful serpent dwelling there destroyed by your strength, but a stream of pure water was revealed there healing all bodily ailments. Accordingly, we give glory to You, O Lord God of the angels, and all cry out to You with faith: Alleluia.

Ikos 5

Hearing you and knowing you as a great light shining among the choirs of angels, after God and His holy Mother, we run to you, most wonderful Saint Michael. You graciously receive us and, with the rays of your light, you illuminate all of us that we might sing to you in this manner:

Hail, mediator of the Law given by the hand of Moses on Mount Sinai.

Hail, you by whom the judges and leaders of Israel found strength and protection.

Hail, you through whom the prophets and high priests of the Jews received the gift of knowledge from the all-knowing God.

Hail, for you provide with secret wisdom the God-fearing givers of the Law.

Hail, for you put kindness and mercy into the hearts of those who administer justice and truth.

Hail, for you aid the faithful to overcome the wickedness of adversaries.

Hail, Michael, Supreme Commander with all the hosts of Heaven.
