Prayer to the Blessed Tsarevich Dimitri of Uglich and Moscow

O holy Martyr, faithful Prince and Princess Demetrius! As a lamb slain without malice by a servant, you were crowned with a royal crown by the Lord, and when you were the son of a king, an invincible martyr, you appeared, and instead of the earthly and corruptible in heaven, you perceived the incorruptible. And now, standing in the joy of the Holy Trinity, visit your luminous memory that works faithfully: observe your fatherland and your city is safe, for you are affirming it: confirm the Orthodox to live in the world of hlubots: tame civil strife, and grant all useful things always to your people through your prayers, so that by faith and love we cry out: hail to thee, Holy Demetrius, loyal people are a warm intercessor and refuge and the Russian lands are an ornament. Amen.
