Have You Seen Him

I can hear my Savior calling,
I can hear my Savior calling,
I can hear my Savior calling,
"Take the cross and follow, follow Me."

Where He leads me I will follow,
Where He leads me I will follow,
Where He leads me I will follow,
I'll go with Him, with Him all the way.

If He leads me to the judgement, 
If He leads me to the judgement, 
If He leads me to the judgement, 
I will go with Him, with Him all the way

If in jail or in chains,
If in jail or in chains,
If in jail or in chains,
I will go with Him, with Him all the way

If He leads me to crucifixion,
If He leads me to crucifixion,
If He leads me to crucifixion,
I will go with Him, with Him all the way

If in health or in sickness,
If in health or in sickness,
If in health or in sickness,
I will go with Him, with Him all the way

If I’m beaten or afflicted,
If I’m beaten or afflicted,
If I’m beaten or afflicted,
I will go with Him, with Him all the way

He will lead me to grace and glory,
He will lead me to grace and glory,
He will lead me to grace and glory,
And will go with me, with me all the way

(Every day at your cross
I used to come and talk with You
My Lord and God 
To You My Father, I reveal
All my secrets and stories
With no fear)x2

I used to think that I will never
From now on and till forever
Will not change and leave my place
Under Your cross
In my heart I always prayed
Your love remains in me and stays
Nothing will take me away
I’ll remain and pray 
Remain and pray 

When I grew with chains anew
I tried to call you
I tried and failed
Sadness and tears
Growing so near
With sin and lust and pride
In a world of vain & fear

And I wondered when I can
Return to You 
And how I will
Stay again under your cross
As a child

In my heart I always prayed
You’ll forgive me
And fulfill
My hearts desires that I stay at Your cross
And pray again

Lyrics from "At Your Cross" by Tervina Hebaysh

At Your Cross

Lyrics:

Oh Thou in Whose presence delighteth my soul,
And Whom in my distress I call,
My comfort by day and my refuge by night,
My stronghold whenever I fall.

Shepherd of my soul I beg Thee to tell,
Where Thou keepest Thy sheep to rest,
For why should I roam in the valley of tears,
And wander as one who is lost?

I ask thee to tell me daughters of Zion:
Have ye seen the One I adore?
I seek Him in vain in the
night of my soul,
But lo, I can find Him no more.

I am my Beloved's and He is mine,
He calleth me sister and spouse,
Oh, how do I long for the day we shall wed,
In heaven in His Father's house.

Shepherd of my soul
I shall follow Thee,
Oh, how sweet Thy voice is to me!
So guide me and lead me and show me the way,
My only desire is Thee.

Shepherd of My Soul - Mina Banoub

Original Song based on Psalm 121.

Lyrics:

Chorus:
I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
where does my help come from? It comes from Him
He made the heaven, earth and what’s within
God guards my going out and coming in
 
Verse 1:
He watched over Israel and He will watch over me
My God will not slumber, indeed, He doesn’t sleep
He’s the shade at my right hand, the sun can’t hurt by day
and the moon at night, can’t harm me in any way

Chorus:
I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
where does my help come from? It comes from Him
He made the heaven, earth and what’s within
God guards my going out and coming in

Verse 2:
I have heard Your promises and believe they’re set in stone
but I forget I’m your daughter and You’re King on the throne
Sing my soul to the Lord of Hosts, Trust in the Most High
Through the hills and the valleys, in Him my hope lies

Chorus:
I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
where does my help come from? It comes from Him
He made the heaven, earth and what’s within
God guards my going out and coming in

Refrain
In one of my dreams
While sleeping in peace, I saw pure mothers And our Holy, precious Queen 
In one of my dreams
A great and beautiful scene
I saw pure mothers
And our Holy, precious Queen
Verse 1
One was a young martyr
Strong in faith and persevered
She lived with forty friends
The king's threats they never feared
Her father lost his way
But her faith led him to stay
My beloved St Demiana, the Princess of the heavenly (*2)
Quickly I ran to her
Her gaze was sharp and wise 
She urged me to remember To seek the heavenly prize
Verse 2
The next ones share a name
Though their paths were not the same
One left the world in place raised a child in her embrace
The other faced the enemy And triumphed in her bravery
My beloved St Marinas, the vessels of humility (*2)
Quickly I ran to them,
Their eyes were clear and bright
They urged me to remember 
To seek the path of Light
Verse 3
The fourth one loved to pray
Evil could not find its way
The mention of her name
Made Satan burst in flame.
Cyprian's magic failed
And in time his faith prevailed
My beloved St Justina, She fought in Christ's arena (*2)
Quickly I ran to her
Her prayer was deep and true
She urged me to remember 
To pray in all we do
Verse 4 
This mother lived in sin
And strayed from Christ within 
The world would always tempt her
The church she could not enter
To the desert she fled
And lived for Christ instead
My beloved Egyptian Mary, her passions she did bury (*2)
Quickly I ran to her,
Her spirit was filled with glee, 
She urged me to remember, 
Repentance sets us free.
Verse 5
In the temple she grew 
In obedience and virtue
She bore the Son of Man 
To fulfill God's Holy Plan 
For us she intercedes
For all her children's needs.
My beloved St Mary, the Saviour she did carry (*2)
Quickly I ran to her
Her arms were open wide
She urged me to remember 
In Christ we must abide


In One of My Dreams (Saintly Mothers) ft GhobrialG

O Thou in whose presence delighteth my soul
And whom in my distress I call
My comfort by day and my refuge by night
My stronghold whenever I fall.

Shepherd of my soul I beg Thee to tell
Where thou keepest thy sheep to rest
For why should I roam in the valley of tears
And wander as one who is lost.

I ask thee to tell me daughters of Zion
Have ye seen the One I adore
I seek him in vain in the night of my soul
But lo! I can find Him no more.

Shepherd of my soul I shall follow Thee
O how sweet Thy voice is to me
So guide me and lead me and show me the way
My only desire is Thee.

I am my beloved’s and He is mine too
He calleth me sister and spouse
O how do I long for the day we shall wed
In heaven in His Father’s house.

O Thou In Whose Presence

Your Love Oh Mary

Lyrics:

One day You passed by me
You saw chains on my hands
I saw with my own eyes
Tears for me in Your eyes

One day I passed by You
I saw my chains on Your hands
I’m free because of You
Then tears filled my eyes

(“How much, Lord, did You pay
To set me free?” I asked
“My son, it is a lot,
But not too much for you.”) x2

One day by me You’ll pass
About my freedom You’ll ask
Feeling my slavery
Although in You I’m free

My sins have bounded me
Loving the world around me
I seek my place in it
That I am Yours I forget

(Free yet I am Your slave
Yours for all of my days
Your slave and free I’ll live
To You myself I give.) x2
