St. Nicetas, Bishop of Chalcedon, Troparion, in Tone IV

Troparion - Tone IV

The truth of things revealed thee to thy flock as a rule of faith,/ a model of meekness and a teacher of abstinence/ wherefore thou hast attained the heights through humility/ and riches through poverty.// O hierarch Nicetas our father, entreat Christ God that our souls be saved.

Kontakion, Tone VIII, "To thee, the champion leader..."

Kontakion - Tone VIII

Thou didst shine forth in the splendor of thy deeds,/ and becamest an heir to the throne of the apostles, O venerable Nicetas;/ and, wholly filled with divine doctrines, O father,/ thou didst shine forth like the sun upon the flock.// Wherefore, we cry to thee: Rejoice, O adornment of Chalcedon!
