Orthodox Media & Information
Orthodox Education
‘Virtually all know the words of this psalm and they continue to sing it at every age, without knowing, however, the sense of what has been said. This is not a small charge, to sing something every day, putting forth words from the mouth, without searching out the meaning of the thoughts residing in the words.’ – St John Chrysostom
Music and Liturgical Resources
‘Just as the Angels stand with great fear and chant their hymns to the Creator, likewise should we stand in psalmody’ – St Ephraim the Syrian
Spiritual and Devotional Resources
‘When the day is over, the vendor sits down and counts his profits, but the worker of virtue does so when the psalmody is over.’ – St John Climacus
