DOXOLOGY PRINTABLE

| 65 Comments

DOXOLOGY PRINTABLE- a printable prayer of praise suitable for framing.

This beautiful doxology is a familiar song of praise sung in churches crossing denominations and languages and cultures and nations around the world. But most of us know little about these beautiful verses that are so familiar to us today. I’m sharing a printable suitable for framing up to an 8 x 10 print. Hoping that you will print it out and sing it out as well! But first, let’s look at where we got this treasured doxology that is a part of so many of our lives.

The doxology was first printed in England in 1709 in A Manual Of Prayers For The Use Of Scholars Of Winchester College. It was written by Anglican Bishop Thomas Ken. Ken served as spiritual leaders to English royalty and was the bishop of Bath and Wells in England. For most of his adult life, Bishop Ken was affiliated with Winchester College and Cathedral.

This doxology was first charged by Ken to be read by the students of Winchester College as their morning and evening hymn “in your chambers devoutly”. Thanks be to God that this hymn did not stay in the private chambers of Winchester College. The printed doxology is the last stanza of the fourteen stanza hymn.

It is a beloved part of our Christian heritage and maybe we should all take to heart the instructions of Bishop Ken to his charges and sing this morning and evening devoutly! 

You can find a free printable of this beautiful doxology HERE. 

This week’s Scripture Memorization Verse:

It’s good to give thanks to the LORD and sing praises to your name, O Most High. To declare Your loving kindness in the morning, and Your faithfulness by night. Psalm 92:1 and 2

  1. I love that scripture. I am going to print it out with my Cricut and stick it on my mirror! I want to read it every morning when I awake. Thanks for the printable of the Doxology too! Have a wonderful week!

  3. Thank you for this printable and the history of the Doxology. It has been such a huge part of my life since I was a very small child. I find myself singing it often. I’m so thankful that I had a Mom who took us to church and Sunday school and that I have such sweet fellowship with the Lord. Love all that you do, Yvonne.

  4. Often when my family gathered with aunts, uncles, and cousins, we sang the Doxology before a meal. Because it reminds me of those Wentworth get togethers, I had it stenciled near the ceiling in my dining room. It’s subtle and beautiful! I’m sorry I wasn’t able to share a photograph of it. (It was ideal for this purpose because there are four verses and I just happen to have four walls!)

  11. Thank you for your wonderful blog! When I spend time reading and looking at your pictures, it is rest for my soul. So blessed to have found you { or maybe I was led to you 🙂 } Your Eccl 3:1 download is a reminder for me that there are seasons that we go through. Thankfully they do not last forever. warmly, Debbie

  12. The verse or stanza on the printable is the response we sing each Sunday. I was surprised to learn it’s just one on 14 verses and a hymn! Thank you so much for sharing. It motivates me to look for the other verses. I always enjoy the free printables that you share with us. Wonderful!

  22. We used to sing this every Sunday at my old church. Now I attend a Contemporary service which doesn’t include it. Thank you so much for the beautiful printout!
    It is so simple yet so full of blessing!

  23. Yvonne, I LOVE the Doxology … we sing it in every Church service. It tells the perfect “story” of our Great Lord’s Blessings upon us …
    Thank you for the Printable, and since I noticed the one from last year is still available, also. I want to frame printouts of each, and as others have suggested ~ use them for hostess gifts at both Thanksgiving and Christmas.
    Thank you for you generosity once again.

  25. Love this song!!! I often sing it around the house to worship the Lord! I love your website, having recently stumbled upon it. You are seriously talented and I love reading your posts, getting decorating tips to help make my home beautiful. And how wonderful to know that you are a Christian who enjoys worship music.I’m a health coach but I love to write contemporary Christian songs and recorded a few on Youtube. Check them out and I hope they help you continue to worship the Lord and remember his promises! Let me know what you think! Blessings!

  46. Too often this Doxology and the Gloria Patri become rote. These words are so reverent and inspiring. May we sing the words from our hearts.

  47. The Doxology was always my favorite part of church service. We don’t sing it anymore (Baptists) but it’s written on my heart. Thank you so much for this printout.

  54. Hi Yvonne, I had a terrible time getting to this post!. When I clicked on it from my email link, it took me to an untitled, blank page. Maybe you can fix the link? It was worth searching for, though. 🙂 (I clicked on a different link in the email, and then clicked on the Home, which brought me here.) Thanks for the printable–I’ve loved this song since I was a child.
