Doxology
A doxology is a liturgical sound check disguised as a hymn of praise to the divine. Worshipers partake in a collective volume measurement rather than seeking theological profundity in the lyrics. Off-key notes are graciously interpreted as either divine trial or free expression. It is the sole moment in the service when sonic mishaps and vocal diversity are officially sanctioned. Once concluded, the congregation promptly returns to solemn silence as if the riot of praise never occurred.
