Fr Mina Ibrahim Ayad Gerges - O Good Mother
The Second Scasis, Prayer Excerpt 88, page 146 in St Ephraim the Syrian's Spiritual Psalter excerpted by Bishop Theophan the Recluse

Lyrics:

O Good Mother of the all Good God
Look upon me with your merciful eye

(O Good Mother of the all Good God) x2
(Look upon me with your merciful eye) x2

Grant me repentance and a faithful mind
Grant me chaste reason and humble thinking

Grant me a sober soul and spiritual peace
that the Lord granted to His disciples

Disperse the clouds of my sorrow
Clear the confusion of my thoughts

Enlarge my heart with joy and gladness
that I may walk the path of your Son's commandments

Be my companion and guide as I pass through this life
with a pure conscience and without doubt

Stand beside your servant as I offer prayer
to the honor and glory of your Son and Lord

You O My Master (St Gregory)-Fr. Antonious Ibrahim Ayad

Wonderful hymn! I could not find this anywhere on sound cloud, so I thought I would add it :)

Rashi Ensaw Niwen (Old Coptic)

Christ be my light 
Christ be my shield 
Christ when I’m standing 
Christ when I kneel 
Christ here beside me
On my left and my right 
Christ all around me 
All my days and my nights

You feed every bird 
Clothe every field 
Why would I worry? 
What more do I need? 
The same hands that hold me
Hung the stars in the skies 
Soften a hard heart
Lord make for me new eyes 

You’ll find every coin 
You’ll find every sheep
Precious in your sight 
For one lost you’ll weep 
Bought at a great price 
But I wasted it all 
An heir of a kingdom 
Who forgot her King’s call

Christ in my valleys
Christ at my peaks 
With every breath 
Your face help me seek 
Be here beside me 
On my left and my right 
Christ all around me
All my days and my nights

(tune + lyrics of the first verse are adapted from “Canticle” by TAYA and Jon Guerra)

be my light

(When You are with me 
I cast all my cares behind me 
I look for your love within me
And long to find You all around me) x2

(And see Your love filling the world
Filling my love, with no end
When You’re with me) x2

(When You are with me
I find peace within Your Words
In promises beyond this earth
No eye has seen nor ear heard)x2

(Your love captivated me
I cast my burdens on You to
Heal my hurt)x2

(When You are with me
You illuminate my ways
To heaven my eyes I raise
And offer You all my praise)x2

(You are my comfort and my hope
I shall walk beside You for
All my days)x2

(When You are with me
All my troubles I forget
You wiped all fears and regrets
When You paid all of my debts)x2

(Your mercies engulf my life
Every day, unto You
My sights I set)x2

When You Are With Me (وانت معايا)

Refrain
You are our faithful advocate
You intercede for us with haste

You are highly ranked in the heavens
With endless mercy and compassion 
Your praise is sweeter than all songs
For none other do our hearts long


Beside your light, the moon and sun
Are not as bright, o shining one 
He who despises the help of Mary
Trouble befalls him speedily

Refrain

The world receives the Lord’s mercy
Through your help and advocacy
O full of grace, Who protects all
That find refuge under your cloak


Gabriel came with glad tidings
To Nazareth greetings he brings
“Rejoice o you the graceful one
The earthly throne for the Son”

Refrain

The Lord of the heaven and earth
Revealed mysteries through His birth 
The long awaited Savior came
Took flesh from you to bear our shame

The Most High power came upon you
Overshadowed you in truth
The Holy Spirit came down to you 
You bore the Christ for us in truth

Refrain 

My intercessor and precious one
With your help my battles are won
May you always intercede
Without your aid, who can find mercy?

Refrain

You Are Our Faithful Advocate (أنت الشفيع الاكرم)
