Praising Him in song!

[InChristAlone]

Last time I shared some of my favorite Protestant hymns. And this time I want to share a few hymns they sing in the Russian Orthodox Church. Sergei Rachmaninoff's "Bogoroditse Devo, raduisya" from his "All-Night Vigil" (Vespers) is my all-time favorite song.

One must like chants, choral, and liturgical singing to appreciate these chants. You can't dance when you're listening to them.

1 Sergey Rachmaninov (Sergei Rachmaninoff) - "Bogoroditse Devo, raduisya"
