Father:
Christ, the New-born, today crowned blessed Stephen.
All:
Come, let us adore Him.
Mother:
Stephen, full of grace and power,
was working great wonders and signs among the people.
All:
Thanks be to God.
Father:
You crowned him with glory and honor, O Lord.
All:
You have given him rule over the works of Your hands.
Father:
Let us pray.
Grant, O Lord, we beseech Thee,
that we may imitate him whose memory we celebrate,
so as to learn to love even our enemies;
because we now solemnize his martyrdom
who knew how to pray even for his persecutors to our Lord Jesus Christ Thy Son,
who liveth and reigneth forever.
Alleluia.
