Praise of the Three Holy Youth (Ten Oweh Ensok)(feat. Cyril Nashed)

I have never seen a God like you, my Lord
Who opens the gates and unlocks the chains (2x)
And created roads in the middle of the sea
Never prevented by mountains or barriers

I have never seen a God like you my Lord (2x)

No one else but You appears in the den
And rescues the souls from the lions hem (2x)
Who can lighten the darkness but you o my King
And fill my heart with joy that I may sing

I have never seen a God like you my Lord (2x)

You have suffered lots on the wooden cross
To give me back my life and restore my loss (2x)
You have promised me You are coming back
To grant me the eternal life I lack

I have never seen a God like you my Lord (2x)

I Have Never Seen (A God Like You)

Lyrics: 

O Thou whose presence delighteth my soul
And whom in my distress I call
My comfort by day and my refuge by night
My stronghold whenever I fall.

Shepherd of my soul I beg Thee to tell
Where thou keepest thy sheep to rest
For why should I roam in the valley of tears
And wander as one who is lost.

I ask thee to tell me daughters of Zion
Have ye seen the One I adore
I seek him in vein in the night of my soul
But now I can find Him no more.

Shepherd of my soul I shall follow Thee
O how sweet Thy voice is to me
So guide me and lead me and show me the way
My only desire is Thee.

I am my beloved's and He is mine
He calleth me sister and bride
O how do I long for the day we shall wed
In heaven in His Father's house.

O Thou in Whose Presence

Christ is the Bread of Life - we get our sustenance and all joy through Him not what He gives us. This is something we should always learn - seek Christ only not what Christ will give you. 

Seek Me not What YOU want!

Antony Paul discusses the importance of maintaining positivity and avoiding negativity in speech, especially during challenging times like Lent. He uses the biblical story of the paralytic to illustrate the dangers of complaining and harmful speech, emphasising the need for gratitude and recognising God's grace.

Upper Room Media is a ministry of the Coptic Orthodox Church. Its mission is to bring the word of God from a timeless faith into your hearts and mind anywhere at anytime.

The Orthodox Church worships God in continuity with the earliest Church, and as such is the oldest Church. It is a Church of balance: between the mystical and the tangible; between spirituality and theology; between the worship of God and service to humanity. Everything is in balance, otherwise known as right worship, which means Orthodox. It is not a denomination, but rather pre-denominational. It is not a religion but rather a life with God in Christ. 

The Orthodox Church worships God in spirit and truth (John 4:24) and dynamically incarnates that truth in every age - empowering all people from all walks of life to love God, others, and themselves.
