Prophet Joel commemorated October 19; Great Doxology text presented
What the video says
The text presents the Great Doxology, opening with the angelic hymn from Luke's nativity account: glory to God in the highest and on earth peace, goodwill among men. The prayer continues with praise, blessing, worship, glorification, and thanksgiving addressed to the Trinity, God the Father almighty, the only-begotten Son Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit.
It then turns to Christ as Lamb of God and Son of the Father who takes away the sin of the world, asking for mercy, the reception of prayer, and acknowledging his session at the right hand of the Father.
