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

Verse 1:
You're my Protector
From all that is evil
You hold me by the right hand
My heart with You rejoices

أنت اللى بتحمينى
من كل الشرور
ماسك بيمينى
قلبى معاك مسرور

Refrain:
You're the true Shepherd
You carry me on Your shoulders
You take me to green pastures
Your love is overwhelming

أنت الرب الراعى
على كتفك شايلنى
بتاخدنى المراعى
وبحبك غامرنى
وبحبك غامرنى

Verse 2:
You're always with me
You will never leave me
Your voice is within me
"Do not fear, My Child"

انت اللى معايا
ولا يمكن تسيبنى
وصوتك جوايا
متخافشى يا أبنى

Refrain

Verse 3:
You will elevate me
In the midst of my suffering
You strengthen my weakness
You are my true fortress

انت اللى بترفعنى
فى وسط الآمى
فى ضعفى تشجعنى
يا مصدر سلامى

Refrain

Verse 4:
You will support me 
in times of tribulation
Your hand guides me 
doing good for me

انت اللى بتسدنى
فى الظرف المرير
أيدك بتشكلنى
وبتعمل للخير

Refrain

You’re the True Shepherd -- St. Mark DC Youth Live

From all my sin Your path for me
for my eyes is hard to see 
You come to me I run from from You
Oh Lord the fire of Your Love
inside of me has been quenched (2x)

*Refrain:
Tend to me Oh Lord, Lay Your hands on me
And open for me my eyes
Bring me back to You, back to You
(The day I left You, my joy left me
I was burdened from all my worry) 2x
I rest in You alone, I rest in You

(All of my habits and my lusts have multiplied
My many prayers and requests are no more) 2x
When I repent my sins do not cease to return
Oh Lord correct me from my ways, please stay with me
Give me Your hand, and ill hold Your's (2x)

*Refrain

(You know my life from its beginning to the end
You see the troubles of heart, and what I've hidden) 2x

* "Suppose a man were in the middle of a river in full flood, and overwhelmed by the water lay lifeless, drowned, with dreadful monsters all round him. If another man, who is not used to swimming, should wish to save the one who fell in, he too is lost, and is drowned with him. Clearly there is need of a skilled swimmer, an expert, to go out into the depth of the water of the gulf, and dive, and bring up the drowned man there among the monsters...The soul, in the same way, has been plunged and drowned in the abyss of darkness and the deep of death, and is dead and parted from God among dreadful monsters; and who is able to go down into those secret chambers and the depths of hell and death, except that expert Workman who fashioned the body? In His own person He enters into two quarters, into the depth of hell, and into the deep gulf of the heart, where the soul with its thoughts is held fast by death, and brings up out of the darksome hole the Adam that lay dead." + Fifty Spiritual Homilies of St. Macarius the Egyptian (Homily 11.12)

Jonah's Prayer/Hear my Cry (اسمع صراخي يا سيدي) - with Carol Eskandar on Violin

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

(Every day at your cross
I used to come and talk with You
My Lord and God 
To You My Father, I reveal
All my secrets and stories
With no fear)x2

I used to think that I will never
From now on and till forever
Will not change and leave my place
Under Your cross
In my heart I always prayed
Your love remains in me and stays
Nothing will take me away
I’ll remain and pray 
Remain and pray 

When I grew with chains anew
I tried to call you
I tried and failed
Sadness and tears
Growing so near
With sin and lust and pride
In a world of vain & fear

And I wondered when I can
Return to You 
And how I will
Stay again under your cross
As a child

In my heart I always prayed
You’ll forgive me
And fulfill
My hearts desires that I stay at Your cross
And pray again

Lyrics from "At Your Cross" by Tervina Hebaysh

(I am the lost sheep and You’re the True Shepherd) x2
(You left on the mountain  the ninety-nine sheep ) x2
(So eager yet patient, You searched left and right) x2
You searched for me with hope
You searched for me with hope

(It was Your kind heart  with the emptiness You felt) x2
(You called for me “Where are you, O My beloved son?”) x2
(Where are you O poor one, I fear you’re in trouble) x2
Where are you, O My child?
Where are you, O My child?

(You found me in the thorns, You came to help me out) x2
(You held me with Your hands and saved me from evil) x2
(Your blood for me was shed from the thorns on Your head) x2
And stayed guarding me
And stayed guarding me

(Your shoulders carried me, You returned me with great joy) x2
(Your humble and gentle arms surrounded me with love) x2
(You kept me safe within the rest of the sheep) x2
Your heart now has comfort
Your heart now has comfort

(I am the lost sheep and You’re the True Shepherd) x2
(You left on the mountain the ninety-nine sheep ) x2
(So eager yet patient You searched left and right) x2
You searched for me with hope
You searched for me with hope
You searched for me with hope

Brighten Up - Feat. George Beshara

Original Song based on Psalm 121.

Lyrics:

Chorus:
I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
where does my help come from? It comes from Him
He made the heaven, earth and what’s within
God guards my going out and coming in
 
Verse 1:
He watched over Israel and He will watch over me
My God will not slumber, indeed, He doesn’t sleep
He’s the shade at my right hand, the sun can’t hurt by day
and the moon at night, can’t harm me in any way

Chorus:
I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
where does my help come from? It comes from Him
He made the heaven, earth and what’s within
God guards my going out and coming in

Verse 2:
I have heard Your promises and believe they’re set in stone
but I forget I’m your daughter and You’re King on the throne
Sing my soul to the Lord of Hosts, Trust in the Most High
Through the hills and the valleys, in Him my hope lies

Chorus:
I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
where does my help come from? It comes from Him
He made the heaven, earth and what’s within
God guards my going out and coming in

Original Song

1. [O Lord Jesus, I've been lost  
Christ, I seek to be with You  
Purify me, at all costs
And teach me what is true

My Lord Jesus the helper  
Come O Lord do not delay  
Be my shield and protector  
Show me my Lord the true way]

My sins are overwhelming me
Come visit me every day
And heal the pain inside of me]x2

2. [The comfort of all weary souls
The hope of those in agony
The One who makes the broken whole
And sets all the captives free

Hold me close when tears do fall  
Take me in Your loving embrace  
I am Your child, through it all
Guide me always by Your grace]

R: [Lord I’ve strayed I’ve lost my way
My sins are overwhelming me
Come visit me every day
And heal the pain inside of me]x2

Cleanse me and make me unblemished  
You forgive without condition  
And restore what sin diminished]x2

My sins won’t overpower me
You are with me all my days
You’ve healed the pain inside of me]x2

ترنيمة هل اطرق بابك بعد ضياع الكل
*****************************
هل أطرُقُ بَابَكَ بَعدَ ضَياع الكُلِّ ، أَوَ يَصْلُحُ أن أقتَرب إليكَ بذلِّي.

ضَيَّعتُ أنا فرحتي منّي بجهلي، قد كنتَ حبيبي وخِلِّي، أنت بل أهلي.

وتركتك لكنّي أعودُ فترحَمني، ولا بيديّ إلاّ الوعدُ ليستُرَني.

والقلبُ بأحشائي يناديكَ أَجبرني، أشتاقُ لحضنِ الآب وعطفُه يقبلُني.

جمّلني فقبحي قد ذهب حتى الأحشاء، وسواد الليل تسرّب فيّ انتشر الداء

أشتاق لخالقٍ من عدمٍ يدعو الأشياء، فيغيّر قلبي ويلبسني حللًا بيضاء

ما دمت في سفينتي للشماس انطون ابراهيم

حته منورة ضلمت لما انت مشيت
سايب علامة في كل قلب وكل بيت
ولو الحاجات بتبكي كانت بكت فراقك
مكانك برد فجأة وفضي لما اختفيت
تفاصيل فراقك كتير وصعبة وماتتحكيش
والوقت بينسي انما انت ماتتنسيش
لكن رجانا ان الكتاب قال على اللي زيك
انه حتى لو مات اكيد راجع يعيش
حمدلله على السلامه .. وصولك للسما
هتوحشنا انما .. في حاجات بتعزي ياما
اللي انت زرعته فينا .. والسيرة الطيبة
هيخلوا التجربة .. الصعبة تهون علينا
حزننا عليك مش هيبقى بدون رجاء
زي اللي حياتهم بتقف بعد الفراق
بالايمان احنا لينا معونة وتعزية
ويسوع قادر يهون وجع الاشتياق
مبروك عليك الراحة ومكانك الجديد
وجودك مع المسيح افضل بكتير اكيد
هنحافظ على الوصية وهنشوفك في السما
بكره الايام تعدي ولقانا مش بعيد
حمدلله على السلامة وصولك للسما.. 
انت مشيت انما على رجاء القيامة
الحتة اللي انت فيها مهونة حزننا 
وسيرتك وسطنا هنعيش نتباهى بيها

حمدلله على السلامه Hamdelah 3ala El Salama | Tarateel - تراتيل | Peter Badee & Bemen Badee
