Hymns of the Night Hour Service
Գիշերային ժամու երգեր
The Night Hour service features several multi-verse hymn cycles. Most were composed by St. Nersess "Shnorhali" the Grace-filled (d. 1173 AD). This great church father's many and stirring compositions account for about 20% of the content of the daily services of the Armenian Church (Zhamerkootyoon).
