Ode To Ava Antonios Lyrics

1- In the church of victorious, with the faithful righteous,

Stands the most pious, Peniot Ava Antonious.


2- Stands in the radiant glory, the ascetic, the saintly,

To adore the Most Holy, Peniot Ava Antonious.


3- You resolved to respond, to the holy words read,

And adhere to what was said, Peniot Ava Antonious.


4- A youth who could realize, that spiritual exercise,

Is the bread for the wise, Peniot Ava Antonious.


5- Powerful constant prayers, rose for years and years,

You served over sweet tears, Peniot Ava Antonious.


6- The body you mortified, the soul you sanctified,

To the world you died, Peniot Ava Antonious.


7- Resembling the Cherubim, in the rite of the Seraphim,

Fastings that won't cease, Peniot Ava Antonious.


8- The demons terrified, with a life sanctified,

Soon they tried and tried, Peniot Ava Antonious.


9- Tore your heart asunder, with thoughts of your sister,

You proved you are wiser, Peniot Ava Antonious.


10 Stirred in you thoughts of fame, money and big name,

You put them all to shame, Peniot Ava Antonious.


11 Women to you they brought, so that you might be

caught, In the warfare of thought, Peniot Ava Antonious.


12 Even in form of beasts, couldn't disturb you the least,

Your modesty saw their defeat, Peniot Ava Antonious.


13 In your ears they thundered, around you they

wandered, The faithful won't surrender, Peniot Ava Antonious.


14 You always stayed the same, devoted to the Holy Name,

The contrite's soul overcame, Peniot Ava Antonious.


15 With the spirit of Elijah, and prophetess Anna,

And the Son of Zachariah, Peniot Ava Antonious.


16 An inviolate tower, with virtues you're higher,

From power to power, Peniot Ava Antonious.


17 Ava Anthony the castle, an unconquered fortress,

The resolute relentless, Peniot Ava Antonious.


18 With love we venerate, Ava Anthony the great,

The pure and the chaste, Peniot Ava Antonious.


19 Father, in your height, pray for our plight,

As we continue to fight, Peniot Ava Antonious.
