Another clip from Easter Byzantine chant sung in Arabic and Greek along with iconography. The music is from a recording of Catholic and Orthodox cantors. (Copyright www.melkite.com). The primary chanter here is Fr. Sleiman Hajjar. Byzantine Liturgy comes from the traditions of the Saints Chrysostom and Basil (4th Century) and is used by both the Orthodox and some Eastern Catholic churches.

This work is in response to one of John Paul II's intentions. For the communion of Catholic and Orthodox Churches

My hope is the Father; My refuge, the Son; My protection, the Holy Spirit. Holy Trinity, glory to You.

  • ...I find it ignorant when people (regardless of their faith) refer to the Orthodox Church as a "denomination". Our Orthodox faith is pre-denominational (after all, our church was founded by CHRIST, long before this "denomination" non-sense came about). And the only way you can become Orthodox is to be baptized in our church. If you come from another Christian faith, and you get baptized in the Orthodox Church, you are converting to Orthodoxy.

  • the orthodox church is rich ..............

    god bless yr life

    I accept what you have said about the denomination thing, but should a person coming from Syrian Orthodoxy / Catholicsm need to get baptised to become an Orthodox? Are you double sure? ;) (heers

  • @ecclesiaprimus I am a Greek Melkite Catholic from Brazil. Used to attend Latin Rite...but it was not spiritual enough for me. Greek Melkites are already 1 million in Brazil!

  • PLEASE HOW IS THE PRONUNCIATION IN LATIN LETTERS?THANK YOU

  • mmm the patriarch and metropolites qualify the orthodox confession as the one true and apostolic faith sooo in a sense i saw it like a faith :P

  • @meusisto orthodoxy is not a faith its a life in Christ.....

  • @TheAvenger2012

    Orthodoxy isn't a faith, as far as I know... It's an earthly organization for a "faith".

  • How glorious is this chant and blessed is the voice. Carry on., and spread the word to the world. I long to the day to se all Christians unite under Christ.

  • How glorious is this chant and blessed is the voice. Carry on., and spread the word to the world.

  • Man this stuff rocks! Way better than the rap they put out there.
