Troparion (Tone 2)
We reverence thy spotless icon, O gracious Lord, and ask forgiveness of
our transgressions, O Christ our God: for of thine own good will thou wast
pleased to ascend the Cross in the flesh, that thou mightest deliver from
bondage to the enemy those whom thou hadst fashioned. Wherefore, we cry aloud
unto Thee: Thou hast filled all things with joy, O our Savior, for Thou didst
come to save the world.
Christ is depicted with his right hand raised in blessing. In his left hand, the Gospel Book. His Gospel book reads, "I am the way, the truth, and the life, no man comes to the Father but by me." His cloak is blue, to symbolize His humanity which he put on in His Incarnation, and His tunic is red, to represent His divinity that He always was in eternity.
