Aripamevi - Piano

Chorus:
The Lord is near to those who call on Him
He is not far as we have made Him 		
He’s not a stranger to all our sufferings
He said “come now hurry all you weary”
To give them rest from burdens too heavy  
To wipe a tear from all hearts in misery

V1:
Sojourner and no place to stay
Abandoned, doubted and friends betrayed 	
Yet He arose to grant the way 
to eternity
A friend to the tax collectors, 
A comfort for the adulterers,
An advocate for the sinners 
Of whom I am chief

V2:
He guided all those questioning, 
goodness on earth He was spreading, 	
He tasted death while bearing 
The shame of sinners 
His night of death, prayed earnestly
Father willing, take this from Me
Sweat drops of blood from agony
All for my sake

V3: 
When I was thirsty He quenched me 
When I was naked He clothed me
When abandoned He sheltered me 
From all my fears 				
So how can I not be trusting
His love I'll never be doubting 
A Father who is so loving 
Even to death

The Lord is Near - الرب قريب - Translation

Loose, Remit

I Sought After You

Inspired by Hymns in St. Ephrem’s “Hymns on Paradise”

In the evening the world sleeps
closing its eyes
while the morning sun
continues to rise

He may feel distant
but a night’s length away
but now dawn is coming
and He’s here to stay

our death is behind us
our resurrection new
bear up life of mourning,
paradise awaits you

Its dew will wash off
all that plagues your skin,
in comfort He’ll crown you
and the race you’ll win

oh children of light,
you must pray and arise,
that you may be delivered
to the living paradise 

………

blessed are the people
who enter that place
where both men and women 
are clothed there with grace

the crippled will dance again
and the blind will see
the deaf will hear songs of joy
they’ll be so happy 

none toil or hunger
nor grow old or die
we will have no shame there
no reasons to cry

the serpent’s destroyed
and now he’s cast away
praise the Lord who saved you
for this blessed day

oh children of light,
you must pray and arise,
that you may be delivered
to the living paradise

The Living Paradise - St. Ephrem the Syrian Inspired Hymn

Prayer Before the Setting of the Sun
St. Gregory of Nazianzus.
Hymn 2.1.25. 

Lyrics:

Word of God
and Truth itself, 
I gave this day to you; 
But now night has fallen. 
my lamp is barely bright;
This I prayed over
But even so my feet 
still stumbled, 
darkness fell around me,
That hater of salvation. 
Oh, Christ! Relight my lamp, 
And shine on me once more.

Shine on Me - St. Gregory of Nazianzus Prayer

Lyrics 

Hello Lord, I just have one question 
Did You forget to mention how I could deserve what You just did 
Cuz all I know is You put me in this heavenly place
And all I did was break Your heart and run away
But still You gave 

You gave me Your only Son 
You made me Your chosen one 
You took the load I could not bear and made it Yours 
Somehow You chose to be weak as me 
You chose to feel my pain my fear
Walked in these shoes 
Felt every joy and every loss 
Somehow You saw all of me and still You chose to come
And chose the cross

*Chosen*
 I just want to say 
 I know that I cannot repay 
The debt I'm in so I’ll just pray 
I’ll praise Your name in disbelief
Oh at the love that You’ve shown me 
And say today that all I am is Yours 
For it was You who gave 

You gave me Your only Son 
You made me Your chosen one 
You took the load I could not bear and made it Yours 
Somehow You chose to be weak as me 
You chose to feel my pain my fear
Walked in these shoes 
Felt every joy and every loss 
Somehow You saw all of me and still You chose to come
And chose the cross

But how could the Creator 
Choose to be the creature
Choose to feel my weakness
Choose to make me whole? 
He said I will come my daughter 
So you know how much I love you 
So when you cry to Me you’ll know that I’ve cried too 
So in your pain you know that I understand 
So you read this story and know I have a plan 

I’ll give you my only Son 
My love you are my chosen one 
I’ll take the the load you cannot bear I will make it mine 
Yes I will choose to be weak you 
And choose to feel your pain and fear too 
And in your shoes I'll know every joy and every loss 
Yes I see all of you my love 
And I still choose to come 
And I still choose the cross

Chosen

Lyrics:

for Your sake
we are dying all day long
with birthing pangs that grow so strong

in this place, here I sojourn 
for a love i’ll never earn
i am here groaning night and day
as I walk toward the Way

it is God who commanded us to shine out
of darkness 
who has shone in our hearts to give the light of Christ’s goodness
we’re not crushed, but hard pressed
not in despair, but perplexed
persecuted, but not forsaken
struck down not destroyed
knowing that He who raised up the Lord Jesus will also raise us up with Him

For my sake
You sought me when i’d gone astray
with staff and rod You lead the way 

You’ve destroyed sin in the flesh
and have made life out of death
You have torn the middle wall
for the salvation of all

so don’t lose heart, 
even though the outward man wastes away
the inward man’s being renewed day by day
and we have the Spirit as our guarantee 
that we may live with Him for eternity  
our light afflictions’ but a moment in time
in exchange for a greater eternal life
so we’ll endure pain in our body
looking towards eternal life not the temporary

For Your Sake - Original Song

His Sweet Voice - Erin Melek & Anthony Marcos feat. Father Suriel Costandi
Oud by Moura Raghib

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.”

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

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

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

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