I am a catechumen and sometimes just hum when I don't know the words. Could you explain to me "ebchois" and other parts added for Lent?

[Bcopt4ever]

Hello, and may the grace of God be with us all.

Well "Epchois" means "the Lord," clearly our Lord Jesus Christ. The title of this particular hymn is "Our Lord Jesus Christ." I am however uncertain as to what mean by "other parts added for Lent." Could you please clarify so that I can understand what you mean.

May God bless you and guide you, as for me I am happy because it is not everyday that you run into a Catechumen who is Coptic.

@neurogrrl The Apenshois translated is "Our Lord Jesus Christ fasted on our behalf for fourty days and fourty nights until He saved us from our sins. And we, too, let us fast with purity and righteousness, and let us pray, proclaiming "I have sinned, I have sinned. O my Lord Jesus, forgive me; for there is no slave without sin, nor mast without forgiveness." Our Father who art in heave, hallowed be Thy name, Thy Kingdom come, for Thine is the glory forever." then the concluding agios.

[phati129]

@neurogrrl It begins with the response to the Praxis for saturdays and sundays during the Great Fast. "Remember me, O my Lord, remember me, O my God, remember me, o my King, when you come into Your kingdom. Blessed are You in truth, with your Godd Father and the Holy Spirit, for You have come and saved us." Then he begins the Trisagion "Agios O Theos...born of the Virgin" Then they begin the Apenshois (Our Lord) of the Great Fast

God bless our Coptic brothers and sisters; our Apostolic family! May the Lord grant them long life and protection among the invaders and herectics! God grant many years to HH Pope enba Shenoutii III and keep him as the shepherd of the Faithful.
