A Stranger - Pope Shenouda III

Lyrics:

R: Oh you oh great Potter
I'm like the clay between your hands
Come create in me a new vessel 
That is pleasing before your eyes 

I give myself to you freely 
To your fingers that fashion me
I will not grieve nor relent 
I long you for you to work in me 

I come to you with all my vices
I trust in your grace and hand
My heart now I devote to you
Not to my despair nor my past

Oh You Oh Great Potter

Hold My Hand O Lord

James 1:2-4 NKJV
My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, 
knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience.
But let patience have its perfect work,
that you may be perfect and complete,
lacking nothing.

James 1:2-4

Lyrics:

Hear my cry I pray to thee
And to my voice incline Your ear
Hold me and have mercy upon me (2x)
For You Oh Lord I'm in great need (2x)
	
My soul is troubled in the deep
And my eyes are full of tears
Now I remember you indeed (2x)
For your salvation is near (2x)

All the waves came upon me
I was drowned in the deep sea
I asked for help. Where could it be? (2x)
But in the hands of my dear Lord (2x)

My heart is trembling in great fear
And my head is wrapped in weeds
Out of the depths I cried to Thee (2x)
Save my soul and set me free (2x)

God ordered the whale in the sea
To safely drop Jonah in peace
In the whale's belly Jonah kneels (2x)
And thank the Lord for his great deeds (2x)

Hear My Cry

Lyrics:

Oh rejoice my soul by singing 
To Jesus your beloved groom
He gave back to you your freedom
Through redemption on the cross
Oh rejoice my soul by singing 
Glorify the name of Christ 
Who offered Himself for you
Remember His bleeding side 

Oh rejoice my soul by singing 
Glorify the name of God
Stay awake always alerted 
Praying to Him, son of God
Be His witness by proclaiming 
The good tidings to all people
Let them know the love of Jesus 
The savior the true redeemer

Oh rejoice my soul by singing 
And wipe away all your tears
Make Him the goal of your life
In Him you will find delight
As salt and light of the earth
Speak out of Jesus' salvation
Dedicate yourself to Him
Our God Jesus the Christ

Oh, Rejoice My Soul!

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

One Day You Passed By Me

Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
Preserve my likeness, a gilded Icon
Despite the ailing of my soul 
Image of Holiness, Image of purity
Crafted for me by a master’s hand

Yet your hope for me, was not reality
It was reality, when I was born again
Day after day, my troubles grow
Piling upon me, obscuring that icon

(Refrain)
Restore to me that first Icon
Wrap me in the purest white
Reveal to me your image in me
Restore to me Christ’s own likeness

(2)
I am lost and I am searching
In every person, for any virtue
Yet I cannot be like these others
And cannot find in myself value

And still I search for my likeness in You
Show me its beauty in the midst of trial
Such great plans from the beginning
You have prepared, Sketched in that Icon

(Refrain)
Restore to me that first Icon
Wrap me in the purest white
Reveal to me your image in me
Restore to me, Christ’s own likeness

(Verse 3)
My image in you is drawn with care 
From the beginning, before I came to be 
In every detail, all of my life 
From my birth, until my death 

Prepared for me is victory 
And when I fall, you’re there to lift me
I’ll be triumphant in any trial 
With the sword of faith drawn in my Icon 

(Refrain)
Restore to me that first Icon
Wrap me in the purest white
Reveal to me your image in me
Restore to me, Christ’s own likeness

(Verse 4)
You who accepts a cup of water 
Two mites, five loaves, even two fish 
A pound of ointment from a sinful woman 
Accept from me these offerings 

Accept my life, my poor gifts 
My own weakness, my helplessness
But I love you with all my heart 
You are my God, I have no other 

(Refrain)
Restore to me that first Icon
Wrap me in the purest white
Reveal to me your image in me
Restore to me, Christ’s own likeness

Trample Oh My Soul feat. Joseph Bibawy

Where he leads me I will follow (3x) 
I will go with Him, with Him all the way 

If he leads me to the judgement (3x) 
I will go with Him, with Him all the way 

If in jail or in chains (3x) 
I will go with Him, with Him all the way 

If he leads me to the Cross (3x) 
I will go with Him, with Him all the way 

If in health or in sickness (3x) 
I will go with Him, with Him all the way 

If I am beaten or afflicted (3x) 
will go with Him, with Him all the way 

He will lead me to Grace and Glory (3x) 
And will go with Me, with Me all the way

Coptic Hymns

Where He Leads me

"Esther Magi" in English

Oh BeLoved

I Place My Soul

“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

“Whom have I in heaven but You? And there is none upon earth that I desire besides You. “ Psalm 73:25

Where He Leads me
