6th hour Gospel Good Friday(Rafadouni)- Boula Mounir

Lyrics by Fr. Antony Paul 

Set to the tune of "Of All Nations"

Refrain:
They rejected Thee,
Thou, the Beloved,
a despised and dead man.

But Thy throne, O God,}
Abideth forever,}	 (X 2)
{Unto eternity.}      (X 2)

With words softer than oil,
Approached the unjust man.
With a kiss, the traitor marked Thee,
To consummate the ancient plan.
Thine own familiar friend, 
Forsook his chance to heal,
He who ate bread with thee,
Had lifted up his heel.

With cowardice and fright,
Thy beloved ones took flight,
They who were to Thee most dear,
Cared more for their own plight.
Thou searched with anguished heart,
For one to grieve with Thee,
But the True Shepherd was smitten,
And all Thy sheep did flee.

Without cause and moved by hatred,
Rose up great Levi’s tribe.
The priests that Thou anointed,
Laid hand on Thee through bribe.
The Kings of the earth stood up,
To fight against the Christ,
But the Lamb did keep His silence,
Salvation had been priced.

With a crown of thorns adorned,
And a reed within His hand,
He rode forth victoriously,
To meet the crowds' demand,
I am ready for the scourges,
Before me is my pain,
One should die for the people,
To be the whole world’s gain.

With outstretched and wounded arms,
Thou embraced humanity -
Restoring the fallen image,
By the power of Divinity.
For since by man came death,
By man came also life,
Unlike our Father Isaac,
Thou wast not spared the knife.

This is He Who offered Himself,
For the salvation of our race,
The great, holy High priest,
Himself on the altar did place
And Thou, by showing weakness,
Manifested the greatest might,
Thou didst bridge our way to the Father,
The Son clothed us with light.

Kiahk Tasbeha┃Your Love Embraced Me (Sabani Hobek)

Aripsalin - Arsani Sidarous

Priest:
You, O my Master, have turned for me the punishment into salvation. As a good shepherd, You have sought after that which had gone astray. As a true father, you have labored with me, I who had fallen.

You have bound me with all the remedies that lead to life. You are He who have sent to me the prophets for my sake, I the sick. You have given me the Law as a help.

You are He who ministered salvation to me when I disobeyed Your Law. As true light, You have shone upon the lost and the ignorant.

People: 
Lord have mercy.

Priest:
You, who are THE BEING at all times, have come to us on earth. You have come into the womb of the Virgin. You, the Infinite, being God, did not consider equality with God a thing to be grasped.

But emptied Yourself, and took the form of a servant, and blessed my nature in Yourself, and fulfilled your law on my behalf You have shown me the rising up from my fall.

You have lifted the curse of the Law. You have abolished sin in the flesh. You have shown me the power of Your authority. You have given sight to the blind. You have raised the dead from the tombs. You have established nature by the word.

You have manifested to me the economy of your tender mercy. You have borne the oppression of the wicked. You have given Your back to the scourge. Your cheeks You have left open to those who smite.

For my sake, O my Master, You have not hidden Your face from the shame of spitting.

People: 
Lord have mercy.
