The Confession in the Coptic Liturgy

[GabrielWithoutWings]

This is the confession that every Coptic Divine Liturgy has:

Amen. Amen. Amen.

I believe, I believe, I believe and confess to the last breath; that this is the Life-Giving Body that Your Only-Begotten Son, our Lord, God, and Saviour Jesus Christ took from our Lady, the Queen of us all, the holy Theotokos Saint Mary.

He made it one with His divinity without mingling, without confusion, and without alteration.

He witnessed the good confession before Pontius Pilate. He gave it up for us upon the holy wood of the cross, of His own will, for us all.

Truly, I believe that His divinity parted not from His humanity for a single moment nor a twinkling of an eye; given for us for salvation, remission of sins and eternal life to those who partake of Him.

I believe, I believe, I believe that this is so in truth.

Amen.

Thanks to the internet, you can listen to this in English:

It's number 13 on the list. Just listen to it. Gives me chills everytime I hear it.
