    My coptic church
    The church of the Lord
    Ancient and strong
    I wish her long life
    In the early years
    After the birth of Christ
    St. Mark came bearing
    light of the true faith
    He dwelt in the land
    Proclaiming salvation
    In the name of our redeemer
    Christ who removed our sins

    The Copts then believed
    In the Lord Jesus
    And joy filled all
    The cities of Egypt
    In a very, very short time
    He abolished all idols
    The cross was exalted
    The sign of the faith
    Satan quickly rose
    To war the Son of God
    He stirred the rulers,
    Emperors and armies

    He then declared war
    On the sons of the faith
    "deny your Christ
    or be thrown in the fire"
    our honored fathers,
    elders and youngsters
    Were not moved by pain
    distress nor dishonor
    but said courageously;
    "Forward, no turning back
    We dont fear fire
    Our Lord is Jesus Christ"

    They were beaten and imprisoned
    They lived in opression
    They were burned and killed
    And tasted every pain
    By the power of their faith
    They overcame their pain
    And remained believeing in
    The king of peace
    with blood and suffering
    they bought the faith
    and preserved it for us
    in the name of our savior

    let us all rise
    from our laziness
    with dilgence seeking
    the heavenly reward
    the church of our fathers
    you are our pride
    to her success
    let us all join together
    my Coptic church
    her faith is orthodox
    forever strong
    Egypt is Christ's


    ...

    hi people, recently, in our church we are translating some spiritual songs into dutch, (it sounds so cool 8)), so i was wondering if the songs: "Same7na ya fadeena", and "Wasat el ba7r el hayeg", and "entee el shafee3a" were translated into english, and if anybody could post the text, it would be such a great help, thnx in advance and God bless.

    Samehna Ya Fadeena/ Forgive Me My Redeemer

    Forgive me my Redeemer
    And bless me o Lord Jesus
    My eyes are filled with tears
    Pleading for forgiveness

    You are the living God
    Very soon you will come
    You'll come and forgive us
    And wipe away our tears

    With all the world's temptations
    We fall into tribulations
    O strenghen us Lord Jesus
    We are pleading O Lord

    Lord, overlook our sins
    Be gracious unto us
    And place Your hands upon us
    Please bless us one and all

    We are Your hand's creation
    Your servants and Your children
    All sinners and believers
    Lead us to still waters

    O Lord, we are not worthy
    Your gifts we're not deserving
    Your love is overwhelming
    In reverence we bow down

    Our hearts You are seeking
    And blessed is the one listening
    With all his heart repenting
    And with no turning back

    Hi Pooh,

    Here what I have.

    Father God

    1- Father God I wonder how I managed to exist without the knowledge.
    Of your parenthood and your loving care.
    But now I am your child I am adopted in your family.
    And I will never be alone Cause Father God your there beside me.

    2- (I will sing praises I will sing praises I will sing praises forevermore)(2x)


    Our Lord, Our Lord

    1- Our Lord, Our Lord
    Come for us our Lord
    Born in a manger like us
    Because he truly loves us

    R- He Loves all of us
    He refeemed all our souls
    Our Lord, Our Lord come for us our Lord

    2- I am Glad, I am Glad
    By birth O my Lord
    Your birth in Bethlehem
    A great joy in my soul

    3- The virgin rejoiced
    In the word of Gabriel
    Our hearts are Happy
    In the birth of Emmanuel

    4- In the east was his star
    Shone was the wise men
    Our hearts are candle
    Lit for the Holy Lord
