"Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning."
- ‭‭James‬ ‭1:17‬ ‭KJV‬‬


Once I wandered so far away
from my Good Savior Jesus.
He came to me, He who saved me,
and called for me to return.

Refrain:
His sweet voice did call me, call me:
“Prolong not thy straying away.
O dear child, return quickly,
and come to Me, come to Me!”

Cruel thorns left my feet to bleed out,
wounds and agony unparalleled.
I heard the Voice call out to me,
“Thou art in error, return.”

Refrain

Never did I ever care to
heed to Him, nor to His words.
Therefore I walked away with His
warnings of pain in contempt.

Refrain

My path grew ever more treacherous,
menacing darkness has prevailed.
I cried in my profound anguish:
“Where is Thy delightful Face?”

Refrain

My grief has exceeded limits
due to my straying away.
Desolated, I requested:
“O my Savior! Come to me!”

Refrain

Straightaway, a light shone brightly,
O how radiant it was!
My tender Redeemer with a
smile appeared to my aid.

REFRAIN:

O MY MASTER HOW CRUEL WAS THE SHAMEFUL DEATH OF THE CROSS
BEFORE IT CARRIED YOU, YOU CARRIED IT
O RIGHTEOUS ONE

1)YOU ASKED FOR WATER, YOU TASTED VINEGAR
AND ALL BITTERNESS,
YOUR BLOOD FLOWED FROM YOUR BODY,
TO SAVE ALL SINNERS

2) UPON THE CROSS, O MY BELOVED
YOU SUFFERED MUCH PAIN
BY THOSE WHO CAUSED YOUR SUFFERING 
YET YOU FORGAVE THEIR SINS

3)ALL THIS MY LORD, 
TO BRING ME BACK
IN YOUR PROTECTION, I’LL LIVE WITH YOU
AND YOU WILL COMFORT ME

4) OH THAT MY HEART, MAY TREASURE YOU
SO THAT I MAY ATTAIN YOU
AND LIVE SINCERELY 
IN SUBMISSION TO YOU

O My Master

Oh you who loved me,
and for me came and to me called while I was in chains 
you waited on me 
and you held my broken heart throughout my life

(Why did you love me?
what good is in me?)x2 
I am a sinner, full of much evil
but willingly You came to live inside me

Oh you who loved me,
deep in Your heart is grace that fills me and cleanses my sins
Your hand that guides me 
and your kindness it comforts me throughout all my days 

(Why did you love me?
what good is in me?)x2 
I am a sinner, full of much evil
but willingly You came to live inside me

Oh you who loved me,
under your feet, I pour my fragrance and worship You
Jesus you loved me
I live for you, I am your servant giving up my heart 

(Why did you love me?
what good is in me?)x2 
I am a sinner, full of much evil
but willingly You came to live inside me

Refrain:
I have need of You 
O Lord of powers
You stretch out Your right hand
And perform wonders

Refrain

You know all my worries
Before I cry to You
No matter how dreadful
Nothings too hard for You

Refrain

The lions are hungry
Send forth Your angel
The king in fear will know
You save the faithful 

Refrain

I go down in the furnace
The fire burns with rage
With Your gracious hand You
Pull me out unscathed 

Refrain

Physicians have no cure
They are confused
Your healing hand will show
There is no one like You

Refrain

The seas waves are fearful
I am in jeopardy
Your power and might will
Shortly rescue me

Refrain

You are the manna
In times of hunger
The water from the rock
Flows to cure all thirst

Refrain

Oh You Who Loved Me - St. Mark DC+VMSA mississauga

A translation/rewrite of the Arabic spiritual song "F Yom Mn El Ayam".

Lyrics:
Chorus:
In one of my dreams 
While sleeping in peace
I saw three fathers
And a soldier strong, yet meek

In one of my dreams
A great and beautiful scene
I saw three fathers
And a soldier strong, yet meek

Verse 1:
One had a long white beard
Old in age and held a rod
He lived in a distant cave 
Held the writings that he taught
His sayings were plenty
And the demons he fought

(My beloved Abba Anthony
May his blessings be with me) x2

Quickly I ran to him
Kissed the cross in his hand
He urged me to remember
From sin I must withstand

Verse 2:
The second had a sack
Carried it on his back
He walked around with care
And from it sand poured out
He said these are my sins 
In God's mercy do not doubt

(My beloved Abba Moses
The strong and the holy) X2

Quickly I ran with him
To bear my sufferings
He urged me to remember
The way of repentance

Verse 3:
The third was kneeling down
In the corner of his room
He had a bowl of water
With love he was consumed
He lived with our Lord
Washed the feet of the bridegroom

(My beloved Abba Pishoy
With love in Christ he grew) x2

Quickly I ran to him
In peace he let me in
He urged me to remember
Have love for all humans

Verse 4:
And the soldier was standing
Lifting up his hands
A red cloak on his shoulders
Two camels on the sand
Armour on his chest 
The monastery behind him

(My beloved St. Mina
The faithful intercessor) x2

Quickly I ran to him
With open arms he came my way
He urged me to remember
Be steadfast in the faith

In the Church’s embrace
We found the sweetest life
Life with our Lord Christ
Is above all success

Our Church is strong and steadfast
Solid throughout the years
From her fountain of compassions 
And her teachings we live 

The soldiers of the faith
The courageous the saints
Who sacrificed their lives
To preserve it for us

They were on earth living
With Christ were rejoicing
Their lives sacrificing 
In Christ’s love abiding

In the Church’s embrace
We found the sweetest life 
Life with our Lord Christ
Is above all success

Our Church is strong and steadfast
Solid throughout the years
From her fountain of compassions 
And her teachings we live
