[@CroGamingBros]

It doesn't matter whom you follow...what matters is that you follow Jesus !

[@polocooper1]

I am an anglican and i believe all christians anglicans,catholics,orthodox,baptists,evangelical,methodists etc need to unite because we all believe jesus christ is are lord and saviour

[@danielcantoreanu]

My dear, i take a bow before you, for that comment. Orthodoxy is the true Christian teaching that still has the blessed presence of the Holy Ghost in it! May the Father, Son and Holy Ghost watch over you. Prayers from a Romanian Orthodox brother!

[@Antipyke]

O my Lord Jesus, save and protect and bless all of my Orthodox brothers who are on the battlefield around the world!!!

[@bertovo6]

Thanks Wadih for these wonderful Lebanese Orthodox hymns; GOD bless you and LEBANON too

[@Ha5lim]

Christians .. Love each other and everybody... this what Jesus have taught us .. obviously everyone is praising him, and every christian understand why we praise him.. don't fall into historical political mistakes ...and don't differentiate between sections .. it's all the same. God Bless you all..

[@matthewbramwell1311]

I am an eastern Orthodox Christian and I recite every divine liturgy the nicean creed. And in this creed, I say, "I believe in one holy, catholic, and apostolic church.". I do not believe that the church of Christ is in many branches, because the church is completely one and catholic (meaning universal or compete). I do not want to be unified with non apostolic teachings. If someone wants to be unified with us as the body of Christ, then they must convert, just like every other orthodox.

[@Ha5lim]

In Lebanon for example ... I'm roman Catholic...but we share the same spiritual knowledge , the same doctrines, we follow one master Jesus Christ... We're all the same.. we are one ...Christians love each other...and other people too...plus the same rituals are performed ... couldn't find any difference ...

[@iuliaandrei1478]

It is so wonderfull to see the universality of the unique ortodox church, so awsome to see the same wall paintings i see in "my" church, the same way of singing psaltic music and the same sadness caused by the Great Friday! Be blessed from the happiness you brought in my heart by posting this video. Greetings from the sister Orthodox Church - Romania!

[@DarkMoonDroid]

Thank you brothers and sisters for being helpful and loving. In the Name of The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit.

[@ahuptou]

Absolutely beautiful. Heavenly is the only word to describe it!!!

[@MrMichael446]

[@cyclops1092]

Thank you for this killer upload! The tones are otherworldly for real. I am Orthodox also and I never tire of hearing the other countries get down on the chants. This was a very special surprise tonight thank you again.

[@wsarahal]

It starts off with Glory to the Father, the Son and Holy spirit in Greek but the rest is in Arabic

[@AlexIncarnate911]

not all Arabs are Muslims

[@ellhnspartan9496]

NAM :D because Greek is the first language of the new testament Arabs and other Orthodox respect to begin in the Greek and contiune in Arabic. Just like in other religions everyone respects the first language of the fatith and continue in their own. . ITS SO BEAUTIFUL IN BOTH. I JUST LOVE THE CHANTS, IT GIVES ME SUCH INNER PEACE. I LOVE YOU LORD

[@zzzxxx500]

أيها المتردي النور كالسربال، لما أحدرك يوسف مع نيقوديموس من الخشبة، وشاهدك ميتاً عرياناً، غير مدفون، ابدى عويلاً يرثى له، وهتف بنحيب قائلاً: ويحي يا يسوع الحلو. الذي من قبل برهة يسيره، لما شاهدَته الشمسِ على الصليب معلقاً التحفت بالقتام، والارضِ تموجت خوفاً، وحجاب الهيكل تمزق، لكني الآن اراك قد احتملت من اجلي الموت طوعاً، فكيف اُجهزكَ يا الهي؟ أم كيف ادرجك بالسباني بايّ يدينِ الامس جسدك الطاهر؟ أم بأي مراث انشد لتجنيزك! فيا أُيها الرب الرؤوف اعظم آلامك واسبح دفنك وقيامتك هاتفين: يا رب المجد لكْ

[@markjohncooper1983]

O merciful father god lord jesus christ please help your children unite it doesnt matter if your orthodox, catholic , anglican, Lutheran, evangelical, baptist or any form of protestant as long as you believe in your heart in the holy trinity you will live forever

[@ellhnspartan9496]

Me too I feel so peaceful inside and when I hear noises in the house at night and like a kid a little fear when I'm alone, (Parents temporarily are in Greece right now) I just do my cross listen to Gaitanos and it puts me to sleep

[@blackrose4evr69]

very simillar to our romanian ortodox songs,thx for uplod,very beatiful song.

[@ljubowart3831]

Its wonderful, thank you,God bless you.

[@Frando87]

im an orthodox christian and i believe that it doesnt matter what christian denomination we come from cause we all believe the same God ....... i dont know why we should be split.... instead of putting other sections of christianity down why not encourage UNITY cause we arre ONE through the Lord Jesus christ our saviour

[@wsarahal]

Thanks brother! Lord have mercy

[@rendouch]

@crazyskoolkid : I think this piece is chanted by the monks of the Balamnad Monastery in North Lebanon.

[@arabianights74]

GLORY TO OUR HEAVENLY FATHER, thanks for the video loved it!

[@nicomateo23]

Beautiful!

[@bimbotardi]

bravo Wadih !!!!

[@salwam1]

It's a very nice chant, God bless you for posting it.Glory to God.

[@MarkGrago]

Very enchanting! A beautiful post!

[@DarkMoonDroid]

The world is full of wonders.

[@Jetstorm2007]

There are a good handful of very important doctrinal differences. All of them changes made as the Roman Catholics began to make up doctrine different from those of the Eastern Church. That is what caused the schism. Just two examples: the filoque and the pope. However, I agree with you that we are yet still Christians and are indeed similar. We should love each other and all mankind as we would love ourselves.

[@ethiopiatekdem324]

nice word i like it

[@zlatkodivjakovskihosegawa]

thank you dear brother :)

[@hassassin1514]

just magnificent!!

[@peterkhoury9689]

Not all Arabs are Muslims. Christians make a very big portion of Lebanon, and Greek Orthodox in particular are about 10% of the whole country population! Research man research

[@Q69573]

Deeply moving.

[@Poisonfang83]

At the very first of this Glorious Chant, it is Arameic (Language talked by Jesus Christ) and then goes to Arabic.

[@antics2009a]

This hymn is mostly sung by the priests themselves while the Shroud is getting outof the Holy Altar. So the preasts carry the Shroud out with this hymn. Or at least that is the custom of Serbian Orthodox Church. We sing it at fifth tone - or the first plagal tone, and it sounds so strong in serbian. But this in Arab... Like it is been sung by the angels themselves. It made me cry. May the Lord grant us His peace and mercy.

[@Orthodoxon]

Very nice,Thank you and GOD bless you †††

[@Tanakas7]

Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@acerb4566]

very nice ! thanks for posting.

[@TheKombai]

it doesnt matter though if we believe in christ, that he died for our sins , was resurrected and is seated at the right hand of the father then we will be in heaven .

[@noverdinho]

@MDIS i choose both of them because their age is the same no matter what their congregations,, Church unity 1st !!

[@petrichanin]

Beauty...

[@acerb4566]

powerful.

[@acerb4566]

very nice!

[@MDIS]

100 % ARABIC Christianity has have and had been originated from the Middle East - so it is no surprised that there are MANY ARAB CHRISTIANS who do practice the ORTHODOX CHURCH teachings instead of the more popular protestant doctrines. ORTHODOX church is 2000 years old. ROMAN CATHOLIC is only 1000 years old Who would you rather follow ? ORTHODOX FOR ME.

Wadih Rahal: Dominus vobis cum. Gloria Patri et Filio et Spiritu Sancto sicut erat in principio et nunc et semper.

[@QKnight45]

السلام عليكم يا إخوتي المسيحيون، أخوكم المسلم

[@wsarahal]

Posted the English translation

[@CyGrGuy]

No it's not, it starts in Greek until 0:50, then it's Arabic. The Greek at the start isn't by a native however, it's Greek with an Arabic accent.

[@derby378]

Beautiful! Which choir performed this chant? Thank you for sharing.

[@wsarahal]

Greek Orthodox church of Antioch

[@noverdinho]

Pray for de unity of de Church,, not segregations,, cmon Christians !!

[@Jy3pr6]

Where could I purchase this beautiful song Wadih?

[@MrRAX972]

braca pravoslavna

[@soldier9718]

it is actually both arabic and greek

[@Lhein33]

UNFORTUNATELY there are great differences between papism and the Orthodox Church. The popes issued novel doctrines, unknown to the apostles & their disciples. How can the Orthodox Church accept that the Spirit proceeds from the Son, that the pope is infallible & ruler of the whole Church (like a second Christ), that God will punish eternally those who don't believe in Him, that man can be united with God's very essence, that God works in human philosophical/metaphysical or juridical ways?

[@okeanos75]

hi brothers....until 0.53'' is greek

[@sirenaluna1]

@MDIS i am maronite christian but sincerlyyy whats the difference, differences are hurting jesus heart so so SO much, hes bleeding for differences in churches. hope that they unite the churchesss i will be orthodoxx!! wats the differenceeeee. this will make jesus herat happy thats wat countss

[@Jeffanos]

The start is Greek the rest of the chant is in Arabic...

[@GoodyearBandit]

i am pretty sure the catholic church is older then the orthodox church. that said i love the orthodox church, i am Lebanese Maronite myself :) God bless all Christians.

[@wsarahal]

It is Arabic

[@wsarahal]

It is Greek then Arabic

[@orfeas040619]

first of all at begin is 100% greek because i understand and second the arabic languange came to the orthodox church later because of the islamic expansion first in the bycantine empire the language of church was aramaic syric and greek

[@i4Ncu]

Arabic Orthodox ???? you are not Musilm

[@ellhnspartan9496]

Its not a song, its a chant or hymn. Song is not the right word. I corrected many Americans professors on this because I told them, we don't bring the bouzouki in the church. Its mostly hymned , there are no organs. Organs came much later to make it more interesting. Even in the Pagan religion, it was hymns to the Gods, not songs.

[@acerb4566]

very nice!
