Blessed are You O Lord, teach me Your Statutes.

An Orthodox Christian Chant

"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 Savior 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 honour 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 ancients' 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 servants and appoint for them a place in Paradise,

Where the Choirs of the Saints, O Lord, and the just will shine forth light stars.

To Your servants that are sleeping give rest overlooking their offences.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.

The Triune Radiance of the One Godhead with reverant songs acclaiming,

Let us cry, Holy are You O Eternal Father and Son, also Eternal, and Spirit Divine;

Shine Your Light on us who with Faith adore You, and from the eternal fire rescue us,

Now and ever and on to ages of ages, Amen.

Hail, O gracious Lady, who in the flesh bears God for the salvation of all;

and through the human race has found Salvation; through you may we find Paradise.

Theotokos (God-bearer), our Lady pure and blessed. Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Glory to You O God."
