Our Holy Father James the Solitary

You were a pillar of patient endurance,
having having imitated the forefathers, O Venerable One:
Job in suffering, and Joseph in temptations.
You lived like the Bodiless Ones while yet in the flesh, O Alypius, our Father.
Beseech Beseech Christ God that our souls may be saved.

The Church glorifies and praises you today, Alypius,
as a perfect example of virtue and the boast of ascetics.
Through your prayers, grant remission of sins to all who venerate your life and your struggles.
