The '''[[Cherubim|Cherubic]] Hymn''' is the primary ''cherubikon'', or song of the [[angel]]s, sung during every [[Divine Liturgy]] of the year except those of [[Holy Week|Holy Thursday]] and [[Holy Saturday]]. It occurs after the [[Gospels|Gospel]] reading and is interrupted by the [[Great Entrance]]. The Cherubic Hymn was added to the [[Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom]] by order of the Emperor [[Justinian]] near the end of the sixth century.
