Your Love O Mary

Our fathers and mothers the martyrs,
I want to live a life like yours (x2)
A life of struggle, blood, and witness. (x2)
You offered to our Lord Jesus
O Martyrs (x2)

O first martyr, St. Stephen,
You spoke the truth in your sermon (x2)
They stopped their ears, so they couldn’t hear it. (x2)
You said, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.” 
O Martyrs (x2)

O St. George the Prince of Martyrs,
You endured seven years of torture. (x2)
You died three times, but you were raised, (x2)
Around the world, your name is praised. 
O Martyrs (x2)

O St. Mina the Wonderworker,
The pure and holy soldier. (x2)
You received three crowns, for your asceticism, (x2)
your chastity and your martyrdom. 
O Martyrs (x2)

O Philopateer Mercurius,
The one who embarrassed Decius (x2)
You received a sword, from the angel (x2)
And refused to worship the idols. 
O Martyrs (x2)

O St. Demiana the pure bride,
You restored your father when he denied, (x2)
You led forty virgins, to monasticism, (x2)
In one day you all received martyrdom. 
O Martyrs (x2)

O St. Abanoub the holy child,
For your faith and youth you were reviled, (x2)
They hung you, from the ship’s mast, (x2)
But your young heart was steadfast. 
O Martyrs (x2)

O martyrs of Libya, the 21,
Your faith shone forth like the sun, (x2)
They said “deny, or die by the sword.” (x2)
You calmly prayed, “O Jesus, my Lord.”
O Martyrs (x2)

Our fathers and mothers the martyrs,
I want to live a life like yours (x2)
A life of struggle, blood, and witness. (x2)
You offered to our Lord Jesus
O Martyrs (x2)

Our Fathers And Mothers The Martyrs

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.

Thy Throne (Original)

Guitar: Maria Samaan
Production & Cajon: George Beshara

The King brought me into
His sweet-smelling chamber
Draw me away with you
draw me I will run after you

My bridegroom has found me
Offered me precious things
His body and His blood 
This sacrifice of love He brings

In the waters of baptism
He has cleansed and washed me
His light has shone brightly
The Sun he has caused me to see

His left hand under my head
His right leads me to eternity
Come, blessed of my father 
Inherit the kingdom richly

The King has allowed me
To call his name frequently
My Lord Jesus save me
May your grace find me quickly

The King Brought Me (w/ George Beshara & Maria Samaan)

We are the ones who sinned, and you’re the one who suffered 
We are the ones who were indebted, 
and you were the one who paid our debts  
For our sake, you preferred suffering to comfort  

Toil to rest , Shame to glory  
And the cross to the throne  
You consented to be tied with ropes 
to release us from the bonds of our sins  

You humbled yourself to lift us up 
You hungered to feed us  
And thirsted to quench our thirst 
You went up on the cross naked to clothe us 
Your blood flowed to wash away our sins 
You died to grant us everlasting life 
 
My God, my sins are the thorns that plunged into your Holy head  
I saddened your heart by indulging in the worthless pleasures of the world 
What is this road leading to death which you walk O my Savior? 

What is that which you carry on your shoulders? 
It is the cross of shame that which you carry on my behalf 
How could this be my redeemer?  

What made you accept this?  
Could the great one be disgraced?  
Could the glorified one be humiliated?  
Could the most high be humbled?  
 O how great is your love! 

I thank you my Lord 
I am unable to give you thanks which match your love 
Greive O my soul for your sins have inflicted all this pain on our compassionate redeemer  
 
O my Savior let me cherish your suffering as my treasure 
Your crown of thorns as my glory 
Your pain as my joy 
Your myrrh as sweetness in my mouth  
Your blood as my life 
And your love as my honor and gratitude 
O the blood of Christ, purify all my sins  
O Jesus my beloved, revive me with 
the oil of your grace and affirm me in you

O Only Begotten Son

I Have Never Seen

No don't leave me alone, O my faithful Shepherd 
Guide me dear Master and be unto me a Helper

(I am O Lord without You nothing at all) (2x) 
(So take my right hand O Lord and guide me in Your way forever) (2x) 

And don't leave me alone in the midst of this darkness 
Let Your bright face guide me O Lord unto peace 

(I am O Lord without You nothing at all) (2x) 
(So take my right hand O Lord and guide me in Your way forever) (2x) 

No don't leave me alone but hear my prayers 
And be there for me O Lord for the rest of my life 

(I am O Lord without You nothing at all) (2x) 
(So take my right hand O Lord and guide me in Your way forever) (2x) 

And don't leave me alone because of my sins 
But forgive me O Lord and accept my repentance

(I am O Lord without You nothing at all) (2x) 
(So take my right hand O Lord and guide me in Your way forever) (2x)

No Don't Leave Me Alone

Sunday Psali - I sought after You

Verse 1:
I was hungry, and you gave Me food
I was thirsty, and you gave Me drink
Lord when did we see You hungry and feed You?
Lord when did we see You thirsty and give You drink?

Inasmuch as you did to the least, you did it to Me

Verse 2:
I was a stranger, and you took Me in
I was naked, and you clothed Me
Lord when did we see You a stranger and take You in?
Lord when did we see You naked and clothe You?

Inasmuch as you did to the least, you did it to Me.

Verse 3:
I was sick, and you visited Me
I was in prison, and you came to Me
Lord when did we see You sick and visit You?
Lord when did we see You in prison and come to You?

Inasmuch as you did to the least, you did it to Me.
Inasmuch as you did to the least, you did it to Me.

Lord, When Did We See You? (Matthew 25:31-46)

Truly Risen

Limitless Love - Fr Paul Guirguis
