My Coptic Church So Great :: كنيستي القبطية .. نشرتِ المسيحية

1- My Coptic Church so great, / you spread the Christian faith
In the Ethiopian country, / in Nubia and Sudan
In the western nations, / in the African continent
And in European cities, / (you witnessed for the faith) (2)

Refrain:
O Coptic Church of God, / persecuted but survived
(We redeem you with our blood, We redeem you with our lives) (2)

2- In the council of Nicea, / heresies, you stood against
Your deacon Athanasius, / he is the hero of faith
St. Clement and Origen, / St. Cyril and St. Dioscorus
St. Paul and St. Anthony, / (your men that were so brave) (2)

3- A church and a monastery, / an altar and a sanctuary
Your sacraments are seven, / they lead us to heaven
By powers so divine, / by prayers and strife
You invaded the desert, / (to praise God day and night) (2)

4- Jesus Christ visited you, / with His Mother St. Mary
St. Mark’s blood so pure, / watered you with the faith
O mother of the martyrs, / St. George and St. Demiana
And the blessed St. Peter, / (the seal of the martyrs) (2)
