After the Lord's Prayer, one of the most frequently said/chanted/sung hymn/prayers in the Orthodox Church is O Heavenly King, a prayer to the Holy Spirit. This hymn is appointed to be sung in several places for the Divine Services of the Great Feast of Pentecost, a several-day feast celebrating the Descent of the Holy Spirit. The first day of the feast is Trinity Sunday, because with the descent of the Holy Spirit, all Three Persons of the Holy Trinity reveal themselves, for the salvation of the world. The second day of the feast is Holy Spirit Day. For the Orthodox Faith, the revelation and descent of the Holy Spirit and the revelation of the Unity of the Holy Trinity are two aspects of the same reality.
We offer to you, our website visitors, this prayer/meditation on each of the 10 phrases of this magnificent hymn --- to commemorate the descent of the Holy Spirit not just on Pentecost, but every day of the year. May it be a source of blessing for you.
