As a compound word, it refers primarily to "going around" or "encompassing", conveying the idea of "two sides of the same coin". [6] Suggested connections with Greek words for dancing ("choreia", spelled with the short letter omicron not the long omega) are not grounded in Greek etymology or early Christian use, but are modern in origin.
Old Testament Trinity icon by Andrei Rublev, c. 1400 (Tretyakov Gallery, Moscow). The Trisagion (Greek: Τρισάγιον; 'Thrice Holy'), sometimes called by its incipit Agios O Theos, [1] is a standard hymn of the Divine Liturgy in most of the Eastern Orthodox, Western Orthodox, Oriental Orthodox, and Eastern Catholic churches.

Vouchsafe, O Lord (Greek Καταξίωσον, Κύριε, Latin Dignare, Domine) are the initial words of a prayer from the Matins and Vespers service of the Eastern Orthodox, [citation needed] and the former Prime and Compline of the Roman and Eastern Catholic Churches, and for Matins and Vespers (or Morning and Evening Prayer) of the Anglican, Lutheran, and other liturgical Protestant churches.
