A small glimpse of YOTC’s long awaited second Album, “PASSION ON THE CROSS”. Let's use this angelic hymn to prepare ourselves for Christ’s crucifixion.
As an American, I was always awed by Ethiopian chant, but I never really " got " it. This makes it so much more accessible and I am able to appreciate it so much more. Thank you.
Converting Geez rhythmic hymn to English and make it superbly authentic is superbly an EPIC! . . . . May the Lord Jesus be with you and May the intercession of Our Lady Saint Mary be with you. . . . Praise the Lord Jesus!!
Very nicely presented and translated for English audience. On the original The church use only voice ( no instruments). We use these instruments outside of the church/ sanctuary. It is one of the marvelous treasure of EOTC that is used in Virgil service, ሰዓታት (seatat) that was composed by beloved Saint Aba Giorgis ( of the ጋሰጫ/ Gasecha). I love ሰዓታት። God blesse you all. May Aba Giorgis be with you. #Once again Wonderfully translated (simulated) and presented, keeping the rich flavor of the EOTC hymns.
Wowed 🙏beautifully performed orthodoxy style chanting. This is what the second generation diaspora needs to connect to its ancestral root. Ethiopian Orthodox is as authentic Christianity ✝️💚💛❤️
Glory be to you Glory be to you my God and my Lord Who cried out and opened your mouth audibly Say My God My God why have you forsaken me So that you will fulfill the prophecy Glory be to you Before your soul departed at the time of your passing You said Elohi Elohi with passion Jesus the God of compassion Glory be to you So that you would let us partake of the speaking blood from your side To drink they gave to you a gall that has myrrh inside I am thirsty is what you have said Glory be to you After you accomplished your death upon the Holy Cross Despite the fact that you didn't have any flaws Jesus who was pierced by an arrow Glory be to you To offer those who are thirsty and to gladen the sad Water and blood came out from your side During the time when you were stabbed Glory be to you The kind hearted true Shepard and our protector that never stops You who were crucified upon the Holy Cross Jesus the savior of your flocks Glory be to you May you hear the hymn of the Angels
There’s only one gospel. There’s only one God. There’s only one Jesus. Jesus only died once for the sins of the whole world. There is only Christian, no denomination in the eyes of God. Either you follow him or you don’t.
💠📍YES! GLORY! TO OUR LORD FOR GOING THROUGH ALL THAT ORDEAL AND SUFFERING FOR THE SAKE OF OUR SALVATION. 💠📍GOD BLESS YOU IN ABUNDANCE ! OUR DEAREST CHOIR MEMBERS OF THE LORD.
Very creative, with a definite artistic input. That should appeal to the young. The images changed in a fast pace compared to the flow, at a rate that the young with lower attention feel satisfied with. It also has a sort of narrative flow that the young like in rap music. Rap music sadly has replaced the narrative wisdom of elders, and this is an interesting forday into it without the allergic reaction it can cause. Keep being inspired, God is creation.
