Troparion

From thy youth didst thou love Christ, O blessed one;
and, aflame with the desire to serve Him alone,
thou didst struggle in the wilderness in unceasing prayer and labor;
and with compunction of heart acquiring the love of Christ,
thou wast shown to be the beloved favorite of the Mother of God.
Wherefore, we cry unto thee:
Save us by thy prayers, O our venerable father Seraphim.
