Saint
Aule, Bishop and Martyr of London
Dismissal Hymn (Tone 3)
Having lighted
the candle of faith in London, O glorious Martyr Aule, thy radiance
was a challenge to the godless Diocletian who caused the flame of
thy life to be extinguished. Pray, O martyr, that the flame of our
faith may burn so brightly that through our constancy we may be
found worthy of the mercy of Christ our God.
Kontakion
(Tone 7)
Thou didst
sanctify our capital with thy blood, O Passion-Bearer Aule, defending
the true Faith, which was more precious to thee than life itself.
We honour thee, we hymn thee, and we praise thy name, rejoicing
in thy glorious memory.
