Dismissal Hymn
First Tone. A desert dweller.
O Doctors, by subjecting to God the knowledge of medicine and serving science with acts of love, you gained as compensation of your labors, the hundredfold witness of your miraculous healing of the sick. Glory to Him who made you worthy of wonder. Glory to Him who granted you, His grace. Glory to Him who gifted healing to us all.
Another.
Third Tone. Of Divine Faith.
In concert with Divine Grace, you proved yourselves Saints among doctors by addressing the needs and wants of the ailing, revealing to the ends of the earth the glory of God. Wherefore, ever fervently intercede before Him that He grant us health and happiness.
Kontakion.

Let us worthily honor the Holy Doctors whose lives imitated Christ and brought forth the blossoms of incorruption. Now, they all rejoice in the courts of Paradise granting the grace of healing to all who cry out, ʺHail, precious assembly.ʺ
