текст песни

Blessed are You, O Lord; teach me Your statutes.
The Choir of the Saints has found the Fountain of Life, and the Door of Paradise.
May I also find the way through repentance
I am the sheep that was lost ; call me up to You, O Saviour, and save me.
Blessed are You, O Lord; teach me Your statutes.
You Who did fashion me of old out of nothingness, and with Your Image divine did honor me; but because of transgressions of Your commandments did return me again to the earth from whence I was taken; lead me back to be refashioned into that ancient beauty of Your Likeness.
Blessed are You, O Lord; teach me Your statutes.
I am the image of Your unutterable glory, though I bear the scars of my stumblings. Have compassion upon me, the work of Your hands, O Sovereign Lord,
And cleanse me through Your loving kindness; and the homeland of my heart’s desire bestow on me
By making me a citizen of Paradise.
Blessed are You, O Lord; teach me Your statutes.
Give rest, O God,
to the souls of your servant, and appoint for them a place in Paradise; where the choirs of the Saints, O Lord, and the just will shine forth like stars; to Your servants that are sleeping now
Give rest, overlooking all his (her) offenses.
Glory to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit.
The Trinal Radiance of One Godhead with reverent song acclaiming
Let us cry; Holy are You, O Eternal Father, and Son also Eternal, and Spirit Divine; shine with Your light on us who with faith adore You; and from the eternal fire rescue us.
Both now and ever and to the ages of ages. Amen.
Hail, O Gracious Lady, whoin the flesh bears God for salvation of all; and through whom the human race has found salvation: through You may we find Paradise, Theotokos, our Lady pure and blessed.
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia; Glory to You, O God.
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia; Glory to You, O God.
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia; Glory to You, O God.
