Fear Not

My child, I will hold onto your hand until the end x2 

Fear not for I am always with you
Fear not for I support you
Fear not for I always hear you

My child, I will hold onto your hand until the end x2 

From your eyes wipe away all of your tears
Towards heaven quickly incline your ears
Do not let waste away all your years
Let My love be your hope and cast all fears

My child, I will hold onto your hand until the end x2 

Fear not for I am always with you
Fear not for I strengthen you
Fear not for I protect you

My child, I will hold onto your hand until the end x2 

From your eyes wipe away all of your tears
Towards heaven quickly incline your ears
Do not let waste away all your years
Let My love be your hope and cast all fears

My child, I will hold onto your hand until the end x2 

Fear not for I am always with you
Fear not for I won’t forsake you
Fear not for I won’t neglect you

My child, I will hold onto your hand until the end x2 

From your eyes wipe away all of your tears
Towards heaven quickly incline your ears
Do not let waste away all your years
Let My love be your hope and cast all fears

My child, I will hold onto your hand until the end x2

Fear Not

Saturday Theotokia - Bola Mounir & Chorus

Kata Nikhoros - Arsani Sidarous & Mena Fawzy | لحن كاطاني خوروس

Lyrics:

A stranger I lived in the world
A foreigner like my forefathers
A pilgrim in my attitude
In my thoughts and my desires

A stranger 
I have no one to
unload on him 
my thoughts so true

The people do not like my roots
Nor do they understand my end
In craze arise the multitude
In maddening noise without an end
And I remain in solitude
Serenity in my heart felt

A stranger 
I can find no home
nor a corner to rest alone

I cast away the world’s pleasures
Ignoring her calling to me
I went, I dragged away my things
Away from their merrymakers
My heart silent, indifferent
To all they think is important

My listening 
will never yield
to loud and worldly conversing

I wander off on my own
So happy to be in vast
With my timbrel and my cymbal
In melody of praise I sing
And now comes a holy moment
In which I retreat with my King

I roam about as a spirit invisible to onlookers
The world alien I am to it a foreigner like my forefathers

My existence is a triumph 
No wealth, power to disturb me
No houses here to delay
Nor any friend or family
And with me are the sweet verses
And Proverbs to console me

The bible here my only lamp, and nothing else to concern me (2)

I do not know of any fear
Nor any bonds that hinder me
No longer does the world rule me
Against me and at times for me 
No longer does the world rule me
Against me and at times for me 

I say to every enemy 
Who only wants to seduce me
The world, in the end, I am to it
A foreigner like were my fathers (2)

A Stranger - Jam Session (Pierre Aziz and Tony Morgan)

Oh Beloved - Fr. Gregory Bekhit & Fr. Mina Shaheid

Lyrics:

You did not listen to the serpent, but my mother sinned and heard her advice.
You did not eat of the fruit but my mother plucked and ate shamelessly.
You are holy, pure whereas I am overcome by evil and went astray.
You are high in heaven however, I am a son of the earth, from its dirt.
So why are you crucified here, and I, the sinner, wander freely? 
A wisdom, O Lord, I don’t understand 
And a kindness that exceeds comprehension
