O ƒƒLord.

The chanting that is done in churches is an entreaty towards God to be

appeased for our sins. Whoever begs and prayerfully supplicates
must have a humble and contrite manner; but to cry out
manifests a manner that is audacious and irreverent.

—Canon LXXV of the Sixth Œcumenical Synod

On the Holy Mountain (and in Slavic countries) the Typica are chanted every Sunday, except on Sundays
that fall between a feast day of the Lord and its leave-taking. The first stasis (Psalm 102, LXX) is chanted
instead of the First Antiphon: "Through the intercessions of the Theotokos. . . ." The second stasis (Psalm 145)
is chanted instead of the Second Antiphon: "Save us, O Son of God. . . ." The third stasis of the Typica is the
Beatitudes, which are chanted as verses for the appropriate hymns of the day.

A psalm consoles the sad, restrains the joyful, tempers the angry,
refreshes the poor and chides the rich man to know himself.
To absolutely all who take it, the psalm offers an appropriate
medicine; nor does it despise the sinner, but presses upon
him the wholesome remedy of penitential tears.
—St. Niceta of Remesiana

No one in chanting with a ready and eager mind will be blamed if he be

weakened by old age, or young, or have a rough voice, or is altogether
ignorant of rhthym. What is here sought for is a sober soul, an alert
mind, a contrite heart, sound reason, and a clear conscience.
If having these you have entered into God's sacred choir,
you may stand beside David himself. There is no need
of zithers, nor of taut strings, nor of a plectrum, nor skill,
nor any instruments. But if you will, you can make
yourself into a zither, mortifying the limbs of the
flesh, and forming full harmony between body
and soul. For when the flesh does not lust
against the spirit, but yields to its commands,
and perseveres along the path
that is noble and admirable,
you thus produce
a spiritual melody.

—St. John Chrysostom, Commentary on Psalm 41

There is nothing upon earth holier, higher, grander, more solemn, more life-giving
than the Liturgy. The temple, at this particular time, becomes an earthly heaven;
those who officiate represent Christ Himself, the angels,
the cherubim, seraphim and apostles.

Pray gently and calmly, sing with understanding and rhythm;

then you will soar like a young eagle high in the heavens.

Psalmody calms the passions and curbs the

uncontrolled impulses in the body.

 Just as swine run to a place where there is mire

and bees dwell where there are fragrances and incense,

likewise demons gather where there are carnal songs

and the grace of the Holy Spirit settles

where there are spiritual melodies,

sanctifying both mouth and soul.

Oh, that blessed alleluia of heaven that the angels chant
where God dwells! There, the harmony of those who
hymn God with words and deeds is perfect! So
let us take care to chant the alleluia with
perseverance now, so that we will be
counted worthy of chanting it
with stillness then.
—Blessed Augustine

To recite the psalms with melody

is not done from a desire for pleasing sound,
but it is a manifestation of harmony among the thoughts of the soul.
And melodious reading is a sign of the well-ordered
and tranquil condition of the mind.

A religious hymn is a great blessing

for everyone. It constitutes praise to the Most
High, honor for His holy people, worldwide harmony, an
eloquent proof of the Church's unity. It expresses the voice of the
Church, its confession. It brings about a complete spiritual uplifting
and absolute peace and joy in redeemed hearts, with the triumphal
hymn and song of happiness. It drives away hardness of heart.
It chases away disturbance. It dissolves and dissipates
despondency. . . The voice sings the soul's joy,
while the spirit delves into the
mysteries of the faith.

—St. Ambrose of Milan

When you approach a king, you stand before him bodily, entreat him orally, and fix
your eyes upon him, thus drawing to yourself his royal favour. Act in the same
manner, whether in church or in the solitude of your cell. When in God's
name you gather together with the brethren, present yourself bodily to
God and offer Him psalms chanted orally; and likewise keep your
intellect attentive to the words and to God Himself, aware of
whom it is that your intellect addresses and entreats. For
when the mind devotes itself to prayer actively and
with purity, the heart is granted inexpressible
peace and a joy which cannot be taken away.

 O THE WISE INVENTION OF THE TEACHER

WHO CONTRIVES THAT IN OUR SINGING WE LEARN
WHAT IS PROFITABLE, AND THAT THEREBY DOCTRINE
IS SOMEHOW MORE DEEPLY IMPRESSED UPON OUR SOULS
WHAT IS LEARNED UNDER DURESS TENDS NOT TO BE RETAINED,
BUT WHAT SUAVELY INGRATIATES ITSELF SOMEHOW ABIDES
WITHIN OUR SOULS MORE STEADFASTLY.

When, indeed,


the Holy Spirit saw that
the human race was guided only
with difficulty toward virtue, and that,
because of our inclination toward pleasure,
we were neglectful of an upright life, what did He do?
The delight of melody He mingled with the doctrines so that
by the pleasantness and softness of the sound heard we might receive
without perceiving it the benefit of the words, just as wise physicians who,
when giving the fastidious rather bitter drugs to drink, frequently smear the cup
with honey. Therefore, He devised for us these harmonious melodies of
the psalms, that they who are children in age, or even those who
are youthful in disposition, might to all appearances
chant, but in reality, become trained in soul.

—St. Basil the Great

your voice should sing; your heart should also sing;
and your life should also sing. Everything should sing!

Q: Many times, when I chant, I feel myself being puffed up.

When this happens, how should I confront the thoughts?

A: When the heart becomes puffed up during psalmody, remember that it

is written: “Let not them who embitter Him be exalted in themselves.”
(Ps. 65:7) Embittering Him is when we sing without understanding
(Ps. 47.7) and without the fear of God. If you examine yourself to see
if your thoughts are wandering during psalmody, you will definitely find
that they have been wandering and you are angering God.

—Sts. Barsanuphius and John

Just as the angels stand with great fear

and chant their hymns to the Creator,

likewise should we stand in psalmody.
