PSALMIST CHOIR, A CHOIR FORMED BY THE YOUTH OF ST MARY AND ST ABRAAM CHURCH IN BRIGHTON, ENGLAND; GLADLY PRESENT TO YOU OUR DEBUT ALBUM 'ARISE O CHILDREN' THE FOCUS OF THIS ALBUM IS TO PRESENT THE ANCIENT HYMNS OF THE MIDNIGHT PRAISES IN THE COPTIC ORTHODOX CHURCH. OUR AIM IS TO REFLECT THESE HYMNS IN A WAY THAT CAN APPEAL SPIRITUALLY AND MUSICALLY TO ALL AGES. THESE HYMNS HAVE BEEN PRESERVED AND PASSED DOWN FROM GENERATION TO GENERATION. THESE HYMNS WILL BRING SPIRITUAL GROWTH,
CONTEMPLATION AND JOY TO THE WORSHIPPER. DURING THE TASBEHA, THE INHABITANTS OF EARTH JOIN THE HEAVENLY HOSTS TO PRAISE OUR SAVIOUR. THE FIRST HYMN TENTHINO, WHICH IS
TRANSLATED TO ARISE O CHILDREN IS CHANTED AT THE BEGINNING OF THE MIDNIGHT PRAISES, WHICH CRIES UNTO THE LORD TO AWAKEN US FROM OUR SLUMBER TO PRAISE HIM BEFITTINGLY.

I sought after you - Talabtoka

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

Lyrics:

How could I forget the One who died for me?
How could I forget the side that had to bleed? (2)

He who saw me in my misery, so He came running to me
He who bought me and redeemed me broke my chains and set me free (2)

How could I forget your kindness through the years?
Your right hand always reaching out to me. (2)

In my joys and in my sorrows, in all of life's storms
You've become my friend and fortress, You're the One to whom I call (2)

Help me Lord I want to lose myself in You;
All my pride has blinded me from seeing You. (2)

So I'll keep watching and praying, setting my eyes on You 
Trusting in your sure promise, that You'll be back for me soon (2)

How Could I Forget

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

No Dont Leave Me Alone - Arsany

I Call On The Lord - with Danny Yousef

ليلى مراد - انتهينا ( اسطوانة )

Lyrics:

I love you Lord, in my solitude
You call to my heart with deep words
I love you Lord, in my tribulation 
In my time of need, in my time of pain (whole verse 2x)

I love you Lord, in my repentance 
In times of tears, in times of regret
I love you Lord, in times of prosperity 
And also love you in times of scarcity (last line 2x)

I love you if you build a palace for me
And also love you if it is destroyed (3x)

I love when your heart heals my wounds
And I rejoice greatly
I love when your spirit hovers around me 
Offering my soul the greatest grace (whole verse 2x)

Offering my soul the greatest grace (3x)

Oh You Oh Great Potter
