We sang this same hymn today (4th sunday of advent) in a Roman Catholic Church today. It is from the Divine Liturgy of St. James. One of my favorites.

@WordOrthodox Thank you, fellow Orthodox. Blessings to you.
-
If memory serves, the Liturgy of St James ("Let all mortal flesh keep silence . . .") was replaced by the Cherubimic Hymn by order of Emperor Theodosius in 587 AD. Apparently that imperial edict never made its way to the British Isles :)

Call be a buff old traditionalist, but I do not understand all the walking around during the offertory prayers. Also, what makes no sense, sometimes a genuflection to the Blessed sacrament, sometimes a bow, and often just walking by. Is this the normal liturgical standard expected in western rite parishes?

@Kevin41581 Thanks for your interest in and concern for customs in Western rite. I'm not sure what is at issue in respect of walking during the offertory prayers, I suppose it is sometimes necessary to ambulate from one point to another given what responsibilities the individual may have at a given point in the service and so on. I do believe any unnecessary moving about would be frowned on at any time during Holy Mass. continued below.

@Kevin41581As to genuflecting vs bows; I think it may be one of two things. For the altar party, it might not be req'ir'd to genuflect, once they have initially processd in and are around the altar, unless the sacrament is exposd or the gifts have been consecrated. Just hazarding a guess.

if i'm not mistaken, the cherubim hymn doesn't seem to be part of any western liturgy.

@hillibillycat56 not being an expert, I can't really say for certain, but not as far as I know.
