Andrew Scott, best known for playing the Hot Priest on "Fleabag," read a heartwarming poem called "Everything Is Going to Be All Right" on Instagram, and it's guaranteed to make your day.

After playing the priest on season two of Phoebe Waller-Bridge's brilliant Amazon show, Scott quickly became the object of the internet's affection (and lust). And fans of Hot Priest will be glad to hear that he's just as dreamy in the new Instagram video, which was posted by his friend Emilia Clarke since Scott doesn't have any social media accounts himself.

In the video, Scott sits in front of a white brick wall with sunlight washing over his face while he reads the tender and hopeful poem by Derek Mahon.

Mahon's poem reads, in part: "How should I not be glad to contemplate / the clouds clearing beyond the dormer window / and a high tide reflected on the ceiling? / There will be dying, there will be dying, / but there is no need to go into that."

Scott's recitation of the poem was beautifully emotional, especially when he recited the final stanzas: "I lie here in a riot of sunlight / watching the day break and the clouds flying. / Everything is going to be all right."

According to the caption, Scott wanted to dedicate his reading to the organization Men Against Cancer Ireland, which "promotes awareness for men about early prevention" and gives "resources back to the community."
