"Having been moved by compassion, O Christ, you willingly approach to suffer Your Passion..."

Icon of Christ "Extreme Humility", from Meteora (source)
  
Having been moved by compassion, O Christ, you willingly approach to suffer Your Passion, O Benefactor, wishing to deliver us from our passions, and to deliver those under condemnation in Hades. Therefore we hymn your precious Passion, and we glorify Your utter condescension towards all, O Savior.-Kathisma from Great and Holy Monday

(source)
  
Through the prayers of our Holy Fathers, Lord Jesus Christ our God, have mercy on us and save us! Amen!
