Its name was given to the icon after a history that occurred many centuries ago. At evening time, a traveler knocked in the temple on the mountain Athos. He was allowed to spend the night. Guests and ministers of the church began to pray together. When the monks started to call the Mother of God, the guest suggested adding the words to the traditional verses: It is worthy to be .... After the last words of prayer were uttered - the guest disappeared.
The perspicacious elder said later that the archangel Gabriel himself visited him in his monastic cell. The icon has since been called the first words of the angelic song, and the image was later transported to the monastic Uspensky temple.
