Prayer Rope Anthem in English
About
The Prayer Rope Anthem in Orthodox Christianity is a poetic and rhythmic prayer recited with a prayer rope, traditionally invoking various figures of the faith for protection and intercession. This anthem begins by holding the prayer rope as a way to “rise up to the sky” and repeats powerful, short prayers, first to the Holy Trinity, then to Jesus Christ, the Mother of God (Theotokos), and St. John the Baptist, among others. Each invocation is repeated with the intent to overcome spiritual enemies, symbolizing the struggle against sin and evil. The origins of this type of prayer lie in the ancient Christian monastic tradition of the Jesus Prayer, often recited with a prayer rope for continuous prayer. It is used in personal devotion as a method of focus, humility, and connection with God, and holds great importance in Orthodox Christianity as a means of achieving inner peace, spiritual discipline, and reliance on divine assistance.
Prayer Rope Anthem Lyrics
I will hold my prayer rope until I rise up to the sky
The prayer is so short but strong and can defy
As I say the prayer more my enemy will lose the war
The prayer I say at first you will hear in every place
Most holy trinity save us all by thy grace
As I say the prayer more my enemy will lose the war
I will say out loud again the second prayer that will be
Lord Jesus Christ have mercy on me
As i say the prayer more my enemy will lose the war
Third prayer I say out loud is to the mother of our God
Most holy Theotokos save us all
As I say the prayer more my enemy will lose the war
Forth to the Saint John I pray to wash all my sins away
Baptiser of Christ intercede for us all
As i say the prayer more My enemy will lose the war
Fifth i pray to all the saints
Who struggled hard with no complains
All saints of god intercede for us all
As I say the prayer more my enemy will lose the war
At the end I pray to thee
O holy angels I don’t see
Archangels of God, Intercede for us all
As i say the prayer more my enemy will lose the war
I will hold my prayer rope till i rise up to the sky
The prayer is so short but strong and can defy
As I say the prayer more my enemy will lose the war.
