Moran Mor Ignatius Zakka I Iwas

LL Patriarch of Antioch and All The East & Universal Syriac Orthodox Church

O high priest, who fought for the Lord’s Church
Through perseverance and hard work
He finished the race of justice,
By doing his duty, with care
At the vineyard of our Lord
O high priest, who reached the harbor of life
Your memory is a blessing
Save us from danger, through your prayers
O Lord in your (Second) coming
May the good workers
Who worked in your vineyard, without sleep
Be rewarded with blessing
Since they worked till evening
You will show them respect
You will grid their loins
You will serve them a feast
Father, Son and the holy Spirit
Will place crowns (on their heads)
