The offspring of Farasa, and the
adornment of Athos, and the imitator of the former righteous, equal
in honor, O Paisios let us honor O faithful, the vessel full of
graces, who hastens speedily to those who cry out: glory to Him Who
gave you strength, glory to Him Who crowned you, glory to Him Who
grants through you healings for all.

Tone
The most-famed ascetic of the Holy
Mountain, and the newly-enlightened light of the Church, let us

we cry out: Hail, O Father Paisios.

(source)***Note: I include amateur translations of a few hymns for those who wish to seek his intercessions at this time. There are several services written to St. Paisios in Greek, and I will refrain from additional translations, for several reasons, but especially until we know which service will get the final approval. These are taken from the Greek service written by Metropolitan Joel of Edessa.
Through the prayers of our Holy Fathers, Lord Jesus Christ our God, have mercy on us and save us! Amen!
