In 1 Corinthians 14:26 we are told that the church regularly shared hymns as part of their worship gatherings. Jesus and His followers likely sang one of the Psalms as a hymn on the night of the Last Supper (Matthew 26:30 Mark 14:26). The Psalms contain several passages that the church has transformed into doxologies. Amen." Ephesians 5:14 says, "Awake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you."įirst Timothy 3:16 is another well-known doxology that praises Jesus Christ: For example, Ephesians 1:3 says, "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places." Romans 11:36 says, "For from him and through him and to him are all things. Amen.Ĭertain passages in Scripture are often considered short hymns or doxologies.
The traditional doxology used in Protestant churches was written in 1674 in England: There are three things in this Psalm that I want you to see tonight.
And it puts every harvest hymn you've ever heard to shame. This Psalm, this song to God, is about the bounty of Godor better, it's about the God of bounty, the bounteous God. May He write its eternal truth upon our hearts. As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end. This is God's holy, inspired, and inerrant word. The Catholic Church has primarily used the Gloria Patri or "Great Doxology." There is also a "Lesser Doxology" whose lyrics include, "Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost. Throughout history, certain songs have been specifically labeled as doxologies by the church. However, dictionaries usually define the term as expressions of praise to God, often associated with a hymn sung during Christian worship. The word "doxology" literally means a study of praise. What is a doxology, and is it found in the Bible?
