Troparion — Tone 1
You abandoned the Egypt of the passions, O Father, / ascending the mount of the virtues with fervent faith, / taking the Cross of Christ upon your shoulders; / and being glorified in godly works, / you proved to be a model for monastics, O summit of the fathers. / Pray unceasingly with them that our souls may find mercy!
Kontakion — Tone 3
Your mind was filled with a holy inspiration from God, / turning you from the lust and pleasures of the flesh, / bringing you to the height of the city of God! / O Holy Father Moses, intercede with Christ God that He may grant us great mercy!
