On the Manner of Saying the Divine Office
Feb. 24 (25)—June 26—Oct. 26
We believe that the divine presence is everywhere and that “the eyes of
the Lord are looking on the good and the evil in every place.” But we
should believe this especially without any doubt when we are assisting
at the Work of God. To that end let us be mindful always of the
Prophet’s words, “Serve the Lord in fear” and again “Sing praises
wisely” and “In the sight of the Angels I will sing praise to You.” Let
us therefore consider how we ought to conduct ourselves in the sight of
the Godhead and of His Angels, and let us take part in the psalmody in
such a way that our mind may be in harmony with our voice.
