✅Donate towards our social work:
✏Beneath Thy Protection is a Christian hymn and prayer. It is the oldest known Marian prayer and the oldest preserved extant hymn to Mary as Theotokos. It dates to the 3rd (or 4th) century AD and is well known not only in Orthodox church but also Catholic. In the Byzantine Rite used by the Eastern Orthodox, the hymn occurs as the last dismissal hymn of daily Vespers in Great Lent. In Greek practice, it is usually sung in Neo-Byzantine chant.
