A general term for any hymn or prayer of praise to God. This broader definition encompasses a wide range of texts, from short exclamations like “Glory be to God!” to elaborate formal hymns. The most well-known Doxology in Christian traditions is the “Gloria in Excelsis Deo” (Glory to God in the highest), traditionally sung or recited during Christian worship services, often at the beginning or end.
