The Holy Psalmody

This Tasbeha book offers a clear and faithful guide to the Orthodox liturgy of praises, presenting the full structure of the Holy Psalmody as prayed in the Coptic Orthodox Church. Covering the Evening Raising of Incense, the Midnight Praises (Tasbeha), and the Morning Hour, this text brings together the rich tradition of Orthodox praises, psalis, hooses (canticles), doxologies, and theotokia in one accessible volume.

Presented in English, Arabic, and Coptic, this book allows readers to engage deeply with the original language of the Church while remaining accessible for understanding and study. It serves both those learning the hymns and those who wish to pray them with greater depth and clarity.

Designed for both personal devotion and congregational worship, this book explains the rite of Tasbeha step by step, helping readers understand not only what is prayed, but how the Church lives a life of continuous praise. From Psalm 50 and the Agpeya hours to the hymns of the Three Holy Children and the daily Theotokias, the entire flow of the Midnight Praise is presented with clarity and reverence.

Ideal for servants, youth, and anyone seeking to deepen their participation in the liturgical life of the Church, this Tasbeha book serves as both a practical guide and a spiritual companion. Rooted in Scripture and tradition, it invites every believer into the rhythm of Orthodox worship, where praise becomes a way of life.
