The Thanksgiving Prayer (Coptic) -- Abouna Mina Shaheid

Covenant Thursday (Fr. Antonious Tanious)

(I have nothing to offer you but my life
Nothing more precious to offer you but my whole life) x2 

*Without you I am lost so lost
Without you my hearts in chaos
You are the hope that’s never gone
My beloved precious one

My name on your palm you have etched
With your precious blood
You raised up a poor slave to 
A glorified son 

*

My Lord you became my joy 
and fountain of peace
With you my life is complete With 
heavenly meaning
 
*

I Have Nothing (Ma3andy)

How Could I

(Chorus)
Be strengthened O my soul 
Be ready for eternity 
Arise and be enlightened  
And forsake all sin
Your life belongs to Your God
Jesus, the savior of mankind
For He awaits you	
With His strong love

Do not look, O my soul
At your dark condition
For the Lord has called you
The most beautiful among women
Be vigilant in your prayers
And look up to heaven 
Be strong in your struggles
And cling to Him with hope

Be strengthened O my soul 
Be ready for eternity 
Arise and be enlightened  
And forsake all sin
Your life belongs to Your God
Jesus, the savior of mankind
For He awaits you	
With His strong love

In the night while on my bed
I sought the lover of my soul
I sought, but I found 
My cup full of sins
But He awaits my return
He runs to me from afar
I will not forsake You, Lord
Restore me again, O my God

Be strengthened O my soul 
Be ready for eternity 
Arise and be enlightened  
And forsake all sin
Your life belongs to Your God
Jesus, the savior of mankind
For He awaits you	
With His strong love

I lie sleeping
But my heart is awake
Awaiting my beloved’s voice
O Lord come speedily to my help
Take ownership of my life
Remove from me all distress
Grant me that I may
Live with You forever

Be strengthened O my soul 
Be ready for eternity 
Arise and be enlightened  
And forsake all sin
Your life belongs to Your God
Jesus, the savior of mankind
For He awaits you	
With His strong love

Come O lover of my soul
For my heart is yearning
Draw me close to You
And into Your depth
Count me among the sheep
At Your right hand
Accept me in Your kingdom
When the time comes

Be strengthened O my soul 
Be ready for eternity 
Arise and be enlightened  
And forsake all sin
Your life belongs to Your God
Jesus, the savior of mankind
For He awaits you	
With His strong love


Be Strengthened O My Soul (تقوي يا نفسي)

He walked across a sinful land
He knew my heart like the back of His hand
He felt the earth beneath His feet
And He came down just to make me complete
 
Oh sinful one, where have you gone?
He’s a strong tower and One to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let Him in
He keeps on waiting, keeps calling you in
 
He came across a fallen tree
He saw the branches of it pointing to me
Am I the one, He came to love?
Is this the cross that’s He’s been praying of?
 
Oh sinful one, where have you gone?
He’s a strong tower and One to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let Him in 
He keeps on waiting, keeps calling you in
