A Widely Revered Christian Mantra

We're going to focus on a Christian mantra here: Amen.

Amen means "Verily", "Truly", "So be it," and "Let it be." Amen is a concluding word for prayers and hymns signifying agreement and unity. Amen is in English usually pronounced "Ah-men" or "Ay-men."

Amen is also a revered mantra in other religious traditions.
