Text: Dec-09-Immaculate Conception of the Mother of God - Tropar, Tone 4

Tropar Feast day, Immaculate Conception, Tone 4:

Today the bonds of childlessness are loosed,*
for God has heard the prayers of Anne and Joachim.*
He promised against all hope that they would give birth to a divine virgin*
from whom the Indescribable would be born as man,*
the same who ordered the Angels to sing to her:*
“Hail, O Woman full of grace, the Lord is with you!”

Instead of ‘Indeed, it is truly right…’:

O my soul, extol the glorious conception*
of the Mother of God.*
You are an inexhaustible source of life,*
O Mother of God.*
You are a radiant lamp of grace, a temple of the Holy Spirit,*
an all-pure tent more spacious*
than the heavens and the earth.*
Therefore, we the faithful,*
praise you.
