The chant Cherubic Hymn is performed by St Elisabeth Convent's Monastic Choir during their concerts in Great Britain.

Let us who mystically represent the Cherubim,
and who sing the thrice-holy hymn
unto the life-creating Trinity,
now lay aside all earthly care.
Amen.
That we may receive the King of all,
Who cometh invisibly upborne in triumph
by the ranks of angels.
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia.

The Cherubic Hymn is the song of the angels, sung during every Divine Liturgy of the year with the exception of the liturgies of the Presanctified Gifts and those of Holy Thursday and Holy Saturday. It occurs after the Gospel reading and is interrupted by the Great Entrance. Though the actual text is short, the hymn lasts for quite a while due to its drawn-out, ethereal style. It is our best imitation of and supplement to the singing of the Heavenly Hosts.
