Spoken English accompanying Church hymn (7)
I believe the answer is:
chorale
'hymn' is the definition.
(I know that chorale is a type of hymn)
'spoken english accompanying church' is the wordplay.
'spoken' becomes 'oral' (similar in meaning).
'english' becomes 'e' (abbreviation).
'accompanying' says to put letters next to each other.
'church' becomes 'ch' (common abbreviation).
'oral'+'e'='orale'
'orale' put after 'ch' is 'CHORALE'.
(Other definitions for chorale that I've seen before include "Psalm or hymn tune" , "Harmonised hymn tune" , "vocal music" , "hymn setting" , "Lutheran hymn-tune" .)
