A Stranger - St. Mark Coptic Orthodox Church, Montreal.

Lyrics:

R: Oh you oh great Potter
I'm like the clay between your hands
Come create in me a new vessel 
That is pleasing before your eyes 

I give myself to you freely 
To your fingers that fashion me
I will not grieve nor relent 
I long you for you to work in me 

I come to you with all my vices
I trust in your grace and hand
My heart now I devote to you
Not to my despair nor my past

Oh You Oh Great Potter

Hold My Hand O Lord

Teach Me

This hymn comforts me. I hope it does the same for you.

Lyrics:

Oh Creator of Love, Oh refuge of my soul
You are the guarantee in the midst of my journey 
I am in need of You
I am in need of You
I need from You a power to raise me
You, Oh Lord, alone
You, Oh Lord, alone
You aid me when I’m weak
And have mercy

Oh my master, I want to delve so deep in you
Revive me! Give life to me
I want to see the light of your love
Shining inside of me (2x)

Oh Creator of Love! 
Here I am to You, screaming!
I am returning to You. 
To You, I’m returning!
To Your embrace, I’m returning!
To Your path, I’m returning!
To Your love, I’m returning!
Oh Creator of Love (2x)

Oh Creator of Love, Oh source of my power
While in the midst of my sorrows, You are my comforter
I am longing for You
I am longing for You 
I long for You to live in me, oh my King
You, by Your spirit
You, by Your spirit
Throughout my life and journey, You are leading 

Oh my Master, come change my life by Your spirit
And reign over my will 
Touch my heart, my senses and the world wherein I dwell (2x)

Oh Creator of Love! 
Here I am to You, screaming!
I am returning to You. 
To You, I’m returning!
To Your embrace, I’m returning!
To Your path, I’m returning!
To Your love, I’m returning!
Oh Creator of Love (2x)

Oh Creator Of Love

My Coptic Church

I wanted to revisit this hymn and add another harmony :)

Create In Me A Clean Heart Take 2

(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)

WHAT A FRIEND WE HAVE IN JESUS
Words: Joseph M. Scriven, 1855
Music: Charles C. Converse, 1868

May we ever, Lord, be bringing
All to Thee in earnest prayer

What a Friend we have in Jesus, all our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer
O what peace we often forfeit, O what needless pain we bear
All because we do not carry everything to God in prayer

Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged; take it to the Lord in prayer
Can we find a friend so faithful who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness; take it to the Lord in prayer

Are we weak and heavy laden, cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Savior, still our refuge, take it to the Lord in prayer

May we ever, Lord, be bringing
All to Thee in earnest prayer

May we ever, Lord, be bringing
All to Thee in earnest prayer

May we ever, Lord, be bringing
All to Thee in earnest prayer


What a Friend We Have in Jesus

Shepherd of My Soul

“Father God” is a song about man’s fallen state and his subsequent realization of the indescribable goodness of a new life with God and the change it brought about. This new life, in which man comes to understand and appreciate his full purpose and potential, is established through the Holy Sacrament of Baptism in the Name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The use of “managed” here does not imply our ability to exist, survive, or endure without Existence and Life Himself. Instead, it is an emphatic proclamation of man’s acknowledgement of his dire need for, yet unworthiness of, salvation.
