The singer Fairuz while born and baptized Syriac Orthodox, her mother was Maronite Catholic. After marrying, she converted to Greek Orthodox. Her music is heard throughout the region by all Christians. Wa-Habibi is played in Maronite Churches as well on Holy Friday. One could say, music is truly ecumenical!
God Bless!
If anyone has an mp3 audio on the Our Father in Aramaic I'd really appreciate the link.
