Ere Pismou(Apetjeek Evol)- Ibrahim Ayad ابجيك افول ابراهيم عياد

Lyrics:
1. A splendid wonder revealed to man,
A second heaven in Bethlehem,
A mystery shrouded in swaddling clothes,
In the bridal chamber, He finds repose.
Come, let us adore His birth.

2. The Holy Spirit descends as dew.
O earth, who sowed good Seed in you?
Without toiling, God’s vine bears fruit.
A plant from dry ground grows and takes root.
Come, let us adore His birth.

3. As budding branches, we raise our voice,
The heavens and earth together rejoice.
Our angelic praise shall never cease:
“Glory to God, on earth His peace.”
Come, let us adore His birth.

4. Blessings descend from realms beyond.
Arise and shine, for your light has dawned.
O all ye tribes upon the earth:
Gather, exult in awe and mirth,
Come, let us adore His birth. 

5. Eternity crosses the threshold of time:
a gate sealed shut, glorious, sublime.
He enters a Prince and emerges a slave:
The Ancient of Days as young as a babe.
Come, let us adore His birth.

6. Laid in a cave as from the sealed tomb
He proceeds forth from the virginal womb.
Firstborn from among the dead,
He bestows the riches of His Godhead.
Come, let us adore His birth.

7. Behold, the Virgin is with Child!
Both God and Adam now reconciled.
With men on earth, He deigns to dwell:
Our newborn King, Emmanuel.
Come, let us adore His birth.

8. Light of Light on us has dawned
enclosed within these virginal arms.
Fast asleep in His mother’s embrace,
Still from His Father’s throne, He reigns.
Come, let us adore His birth.

9. In the East, Your star shined bright,
Guiding the magi on this* luminous Night.
They found You nursing at Your mother’s breast,
O Bread of Life who feeds all flesh.
Come, let us adore His birth.

10. Life shone forth and was revealed,
a visible marvel, once concealed.
The magi offer Him their gifts:
The Word made flesh, now in our midst.
Come, let us adore His birth.

11. With the magi we offer oblations:
The bread and cup in adoration.
In the manger, the altar of sacrifice,
He gives His Body, the Bread of Life.
Come, let us adore His birth.

12. Receive God’s gift, all ye faithful:
Set upon this mystical table.
This blessed Night** He comes to us
and finds His rest within our hearts.
Come, let us adore His birth.

* - "that" if not chanted on the festal vigil
** = "Day" if chanted during the day, as opposed to the festal vigil

Resurrected

My Coptic Church is a song about the strength of the Coptic Church since its establishment by St. Mark, the Apostle of Christ. Our Lord has never left His Church and His Church has never left her Orthodox faith, given to us by Jesus Christ Himself. Through the blood of the courageous martyrs, the suffering of the confessors, the diligence of the fathers, and the faithfulness of the believers, the Coptic Church holds fast the traditional and essential dogma that Christ intended for the whole world. We hold fast to this precious gem and guard it with our lives through God’s evident grace and care for His Church.

My Coptic Church

“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.

Father God

In “Amen Amen Come” the soul’s yearning for the return of Jesus Christ in His glorious Second Coming is clear. The elaborate imagery in St. John’s book of Revelation describes the magnificence of this eternity in which there will be no more pain, tears, or suffering, but the Church will be forever joyful with Her Groom whose light shines brighter than can be comprehended. With excitement and patience, with eagerness and diligence, with hope and love, the Church eagerly waits for this Day. Come quickly, Amen!

Amen Amen Come

“Resurrection” tries to convey the reality of our victory over weakness, sin, and death through the power of our Lord Jesus Christ’s resurrection. Amid life’s struggles and troughs, it can be easy to lose sight of this fact and how in His resurrection, we rise daily from the depths of the darkness that surrounds us. His resurrection is alive in us today—now, and for this reason the lyrics emphasize “gives” and “makes” in the present. By His death He abolished death, and in His resurrection we experience new life. We preach His resurrection when we shine as lights in His glorious triumph, and we await our final resurrection when we will be forever surrounded by and engulfed in this exuberant, incomprehensible glory.
