I Place My Soul (Jam Session)

♱
Based on the prayer in Jonah 2, with my lovely sister :)
Original Arabic words by Fr. Makary Younan
*Related saying by St. Macarius the Egyptian below lyrics!

(Chorus)
Hear my cry Lord, I pray to Thee, 
And to my voice incline Your ear, 
(Hold me and have mercy on me,) x2
(For You O Lord I am in great need.) x2

(Verse 1)
My soul is troubled in the deep, 
And my eyes are full of tears, 
(Now I remembered You indeed,) x2
(For Your salvation is so near.) x2

(Verse 2)
All of the waves came upon me, 
And I was drowned in the deep sea, 
(I asked for help, where could it be) x2 
(But in the hands of my Lord dear.) x2

(Chorus)
So hear my cry Lord, I pray to Thee, 
And to my voice incline Your ear, 
(Hold me and have mercy on me,) x2 
(For You O Lord I am in great need.) x2

(Verse 3)
My heart is trembling in great fear,
And my head is wrapped in weeds, 
(Out of the depths I cried to Thee,) x2
(Save my soul and set me free.) x2

(Verse 4)
God ordered the whale in the sea, 
To safely drop Jonah down in peace, 
(In the whale's belly Jonah kneeled,) x2
(And thanked the Lord for His great deed.) x2

* "Suppose a man were in the middle of a river in full flood, and overwhelmed by the water lay lifeless, drowned, with dreadful monsters all round him. If another man, who is not used to swimming, should wish to save the one who fell in, he too is lost, and is drowned with him. Clearly there is need of a skilled swimmer, an expert, to go out into the depth of the water of the gulf, and dive, and bring up the drowned man there among the monsters...The soul, in the same way, has been plunged and drowned in the abyss of darkness and the deep of death, and is dead and parted from God among dreadful monsters; and who is able to go down into those secret chambers and the depths of hell and death, except that expert Workman who fashioned the body? In His own person He enters into two quarters, into the depth of hell, and into the deep gulf of the heart, where the soul with its thoughts is held fast by death, and brings up out of the darksome hole the Adam that lay dead." + Fifty Spiritual Homilies of St. Macarius the Egyptian (Homily 11.12)

Jonah's Prayer/Hear my Cry (اسمع صراخي يا سيدي) - with Carol Eskandar on Violin

Morning Doxology

Gregorian Agios - Fr. Andrew Iskander

English Translation:

O Christ, our God, You who wept over Jerusalem
Because it did not recognize the time of its visitation
And did not respond to the call of repentance,
Accept in Your tears the bitterness of my tears,
Heal my pains with Your suffering,
Soothe my wounds with Your wounds,
Sanctify my blood with Your blood,
Sanctify my body through receiving Your living body.
Kyrie eleison, Lord have mercy.

O You who stretched out Your body on the cross,
Draw to You my mind, which is misled by demons.
O You who bowed Your head on the cross,
Lift up my head, which has been shamed by the scorners.
O You whose most holy hands were nailed to the cross,
Bring me back from the abyss of perdition,
As Your most holy mouth has promised.

O You who accepted the slap and spitting on the face from the hypocrites,
Cleanse my defiled face from disgrace.
Do not let me stray from You,
For You surrendered Your spirit to the Father on the cross.
Kyrie eleison, Kyrie eleison, O Lord, have mercy.

I have no contrite heart to seek You,
I have no repentance or humility to return me to innocence.
I have no tears, O my Lord,
For my mind has been darkened by the worries of life,
And it cannot look up to You with grief.
My heart has grown cold from the severity of trials,
And it can no longer be warmed with the tears of love.

But You, O Lord Jesus Christ, O Treasure of all goodness,
Grant me perfect repentance and a contrite heart,
So that I may go out seeking You,
For without You, I am a stranger to all prayer.
Kyrie eleison, Kyrie eleison, O Lord, have mercy.

Grant me, then, Your grace, O Good One.
You who were eternally begotten of the Father without time,
Renew within me the features of Your image.
I have forsaken You, do not forsake me.
I have separated myself from You, do not abandon me.
But lead me into Your pasture,
And make me dwell among Your chosen flock.

Feed me with the richness of Your divine mysteries,
Where the pure heart beholds the radiance of Your revelations,
Which are a comfort and joy to those who have struggled for Your sake in tribulations,
And have endured various afflictions.

That we may be made worthy of this vision by Your grace and Your love for mankind,
Through all ages, and by the working of Your Holy Spirit,
As we now call upon the Creator and Sustainer of all,
With the hymn of the children, saying:

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name,

The Greatest Love - Medley

Featuring: 
	⁃	Tony Morgan
	⁃	Farah Matta
	⁃	Karen Soliman (producer) 

Lyrics: 
Oh Beloved, oh Beloved; nailed unto the cross for me
O what sin hast Thou committed; Thou who callest all to be.
Oh beloved, wish that I could; spend the rest of life with Thee
Worshipping Thine holy passion, crucifying the flesh for Thee.

(A lamb led to slaughter, You did not open your mouth.
A silent sheep, They led you down the harsh way of the cross). x2

He was bleeding from the beating, there were stripes upon His back
And He wore a crown of thorns upon His head 
He bore with every step the scorn of those who cried out for His death

Down the Via Dolorosa called the way of suffering 
Like a lamb came the Messiah, Christ the King
But He chose to walk that road out of His love for you and me 

Oh Beloved, oh Beloved; nailed unto the cross for me

(So why are You here crucified and I the sinner am free and boastful)x2

(Ill never see a love, greater and stronger than Your love, Crucified on the cross oh My Lord, 
You chose it willingly, Yet it is a just punishment for myself the sinner) x2

He loves me My Lord, Na3am a7abany
Jesus still loves me, Le2ana Meta 3any.
My Lord loves, a7abany, He loves me (He loves me) 

Oh beloved, wish that I could; spend the rest of life with Thee
Worshipping Thine holy passion, crucifying the flesh for Thee.

His Sweet Voice - Erin Melek & Anthony Marcos feat. Father Suriel Costandi
Oud by Moura Raghib

Once I wandered so far away
from my Good Savior Jesus.
He came to me, He who saved me,
and called for me to return.

Refrain: 
His sweet voice did call me, call me:
“Prolong not thy straying away.
O dear child, return quickly, 
and come to Me, come to Me!”

Cruel thorns left my feet to bleed out,
wounds and agony unparalleled.
I heard the Voice call out to me,
“Thou art in error, return.”

Never did I ever care to 
heed to Him, nor to His words.
Therefore I walked away with His
warnings of pain in contempt.

My path grew ever more treacherous,
menacing darkness has prevailed.
I cried in my profound anguish:
“Where is Thy delightful Face?”

My grief has exceeded limits
due to my straying away. 
Desolated, I requested: 
“O my Savior! Come to me!”

Straightaway, a light shone brightly,
O how radiant it was!
My tender Redeemer with a
smile appeared to my aid.
