Medieval Byzantine Chant. Title: "Μεθ' ἡμῶν ὁ Θεός" (God is with us) Service: Lent Vespers Performers: Greek Byzantine Choir **ARCHIVAL CONCERT RECORDING** ~ This hymn is chanted during the Lent Vespers in the byzantine rite. Most of its lyrics come from the Book of Isaiah, hence it is also known by the name "Song of the Prophet". Its triumphant spirit and lyrics are meant to encourage and raise the moral of the faithful during the long spiritual and physical struggle of the Lenten Period. Also note that, "God is with us" is the very meaning of the foretold name of Jesus Christ, that is, "Emmanuel". Thus the hymn's title and refrain becomes an invocation of Jesus Christ. ~ Due to space restrictions only the english lyrics are posted below. If anyone is interested in the greek lyrics, please let me know: God is with us, know this nations and be defeated. For God is with us. Harken to the ends of the Earth, For God is with us. Ye mighty, be conquered, For God is with us. For if again ye prevail, again shall ye be conquered. For God is with us. And whatever plan ye shall create, the Lord shall scatter. For God is with us. And any word ye shall utter, it shall not dwell in ye, For God is with us. And we shall not be afraid with your fear, nor shall we be perturbed. For God is with us.

And I shall be obedient to Him, and through Him I shall be saved. For God is with us. Behold, here I and the children that God hath given me. For God with us. The people that wandered in the dark hath seen great light. For God is with us. We who dwell in the land and the shadow of death, light shall shine on us. For God is with us. For a Child hath been born to us, a Son, and He hath been given to us. For God is with us. No beginning was created on His shoulder. For God is with us. And of His peace there is no boundary.
