Let my prayer arise in thy sight as incense; and let the lifting up of my hands be an evening sacrifice. Lord, I call upon thee, hear me; receive the voice of my prayer, when I call upon thee. Set a guard, O Lord, over my mouth, and keep watch over the door of my lips. Incline not my heart to evil words, nor to make excuses for sins.
@@bunnybird9342 the truth of the matter is this music is beautiful to all ears but so is protestant music. Go to a video of the song Oceans and you'll see no shortage of admiration from muslims, atheists, and even catholics in the comments section. You'll see a lot of people sharing their trials and asking for prayer. Many of those types of songs draw all types.
As a Non Denominational, I can only say that these hymns are some of the most beautiful pieces of worship I have ever heard. I listen to these more often now. I find peace through these hymns.
Oh, but they're the same. There is no flesh without soul, nor a soul without flesh. They are always together. Flesh is the face of God in which he is manifest without reserve.
@@mike-0451 what's happens when you die, where is your soul then? It lives still. The flesh is not the manifestation of God. The flesh is like a light bulb on a table. In and of itself, it cannot produce light though it was designed to do so. If however, you put that bulb into the place it was designed to live, in a socket, the once invisible electricity suddenly becomes visible to us in our field of view via a pure expression of that power in the form of light. The bulb does nothing except remain in the correct place. The invisible electricity is the cause of its own effect through the bulb, producing the light. That light is an image of that which was once invisible to us. This is how God makes us into his own image. God is not flesh and never will be. God is spirit. He's invisible like the electricity. Once we reconnect with God in the correct way, via the socket Jesus made by going on that cross, opening the way for us to repent and live as God says not as we want, then we are connected and the invisible God will be manifested through the visible flesh, via the soul where God's Holy Spirit will reside. Only once you've repented and been baptised in the Holy Spirit. Only then do we look, talk, act and react like God because He's the cause of His own effect through us. Man as man should be, like Adam was before he fell.
Da ispravitsya molitva moya, yako kadilo pred Toboyu: vozdeyanie ruku moeyu, zhertva vechernyaya. Gospodi, vozzvakh k Tebe, uslïshi mya: vonmi glasu moleniya moyego, vnegda vozzvati mi k Tebe. Polozhi, Gospodi, khranenie ustom moim: i dver ograzhdeniya o ustnakh moikh. Ne ukloni serdtse moe v slovesa lukavstviya: nepshchevati vinï o gresekh.
I'm Protestant (Presbyterian). There are a lot of differences we have with the Orthodox and Catholics, but in terms of music I can say that we have really fallen short. The new generation has grown tired of the beautiful hymns we used to sing and replaced them with contemporary music. A good portion of them are good, formal and theologically correct, the rest are pop songs with questionable perspectives to God, the Son, Salvation and long gone is the respect and fear for the Lord. In times of stress, peril and suffering, only soothing chants like this can ease my heart, something that Christian pop and rock can never do. I thank God that such beautiful music is still widely available and that we can listen to them anytime we want. Kyrie Eleison. Gospodi Pomilyuj
Let my prayer arise in thy sight as incense and let the lifting up of my hands be a evening sacrifice And some other stuff sorry I can't be bothered to translate the rest now just read psalms 140 Or in KJV it will be psalm 141 in the Holy Bible it says the same thing
It's a so called church-Slavonic language (came from IX century). I'm Russian and I don't understand some words. That language is still exist in ortodox- church prayers and songs like this. You can read more in Wikipedia. Please note that in King James Bible it's psalm 141 (I found it in the Wikipedia also). The order of poems is different than in this song, but the meaning is the same. (order of poems according to the psalm 141 numeration and the song: 2, 2, 1, 3, 4, 2)
God, Wake up: God, wake up! Wake up! Enough sleeping, wake up now and see your city burn! See your children ripped away from their land. Some are still infants playing with their mother’s breasts and cackling in joy, but the enemy does not spare even them. Now, see here, the young lovers clinging and shivering as the doors shake from the blows of fists and boots! Are you seeing the streets strewn with flowers of your garden trampled by a marauding animal set free from its cage? Why do you still sleep, dear Lord? Why have you forsaken us?
If God did not save his only precious son from persecution and horrific cruelty at the hands of barbaric humans, why would he save US from the same? We have to turn to Jesus who suffered and died so that we can live forever in the light of his love for us. No matter what happens here on earth in temporary bodies that age and decay, Jesus rose from the dead and he will return for us believers. HE is the way to eternal life in heaven with God. Believe it and live forever 🌠.
Would you also stand in front of King David and tell him that using instruments was not allowed and that he would have to throw away all the psalms he had written? Burn the book of Psalms maybe and then you could rewrite it in your own image just like you did with the Church?
