برك يا رب ردا

Representative Text

1 برُّكَ يا ربُّ رِدا
عزٍّ وثوبٌ يلمعُ
ألبَسُهُ إلى المدى
وفيهِ رأسي أرفعُ

2 في يومِ بعثي أقفُ
في موقفِ الحقِّ المبينْ
وبابتهاجٍ أهتفُ
الحيُّ مِن أجلي دَفينْ

3 هذا الرِّدا خيرُ الحِلَى
مِن كلِّ ثوبٍ أَطهَرُ
ليس به عيبٌ ولا
في لونِه تَغَيُّرُ

4 ستسمعُ الموتى ندا
ربِّ البرايا القادرِ
ويرتدي أهلُ الفِدا
برَّ المسيحِ الناصري
