== The Psalter in Orthodox worship ==
Fr. [[Georges Florovsky]] has described the Psalter as a golden thread running through the beautiful garment that is the divine services of the [[Orthodox Church]][need citation]. Indeed, the Psalter forms the core of each of the services of the [[Daily Cycle]], the [[Divine Liturgy]], and the other sacramental offices of the Church.
The Psalter is so prevalent in Orthodox worship that St. [[John Chrysostom]] said that wherever one looks in the Church, he finds the Psalter "first, last, and central."
