Akathist Hymn to Saint John, Forerunner and

Baptist of the Lord
Kontakion 1

Thou wast chosen from days of old, Saint John, to be the Forerunner and Baptist of
Christ God the Saviour of the world. Glorifying the Lord Who glorified thee, we sing
unto thee hymns of praise as unto the greatest of those born of woman, as unto an
angel in the flesh and a preacher of repentance. Since thou hast great boldness
before the Lord, free us from dangers of all kinds and move us to repentance, so
that we may cry unto thee with love:

Rejoice, Great John, Prophet, Forerunner and Baptist of the Lord.

Ikos 1

The Archangel Gabriel, who standeth before God, was sent unto the priest
Zachariah, when he, serving according to his rank, entered with incense into the
Sanctuary of the Lord. Standing to the right of the Altar of Incense, the angel
announced unto him the good news of thy birth. Gabriel proclaimed joy and
gladness unto Zachariah, because many would rejoice at God’s amazing goodwill
concerning thee, Saint John, and thence would reverently cry out in praise of thee:

Rejoice, ineffable confidant of the counsel of God.

Rejoice, fulfillment of His marvelous dispensation.

When Zachariah beheld the angel, he was disturbed and fear fell upon him, for he
did not believe the words of the announcement concerning thy birth. Thereupon
being stricken with dumbness for his disbelief, he marveled at this most glorious
wonder, crying unto God with all his heart: Alleluia.

Ikos 2

Seeking to understand the unfathomable Mind, the people awaited Zachariah and
wondered at his tarrying in the Sanctuary. When he came out and could not speak
unto them, but only made signs, then they all understood that he had beheld a vision
in the Sanctuary. We therefore glorify God, the marvelous Creator of miracles, and
we cry unto thee:

Kontakion 3

The power of the Most High ended the barrenness of the righteous Elizabeth, who
was beyond the natural age for bearing children, for she conceived thee, the
glorious Forerunner of the Lord. Keeping this secret for five months, she said: For
thus hath the Lord dealt with me in the days wherein He looked upon me to take
away my reproach among men. But when Elizabeth received her who bore Christ in
her womb, she was filled with the Holy Ghost and cried with a loud voice: Whence is
this to me that the Mother of my Lord should come unto me? Rejoicing together with

Thou who wast to go before the Lord in the spirit and power of Elijah wast filled with
the Holy Ghost whilst in thy mother’s womb, whence thou didst appear as a

Israel, for He hath visited and redeemed His people, and thou, child, shalt be called
the Prophet of the Highest, singing unto Him: Alleluia.
