All You Heavenly Orders - Ya kol al sefoof al samaeen - يا كل الصفوف السمائيين
This Arabic hymn along with Ekhrestos Anesti ua-cam.com/video/ksXmD15vsbs/v-deo.html are the most famous Easter hymns of the Coptic Church. It's chanted in the holy masses of the Easter and Eastertide until the Ascension Day before the cycle of the cross around the church and after reading the Praxis (the Acts of the Apostles), also in the Matins of Whitsun.
The whole length of the hymn isn't usually used in the mass and it is often chanted until the end of the fourth portion, وأبْدَلَ لَنَا العُقُوبَةَ بِالخَلاصْ.
The hymn is one of the entirely Arabic hymns used in liturgy written in the modern era. It was written by Fr Philotheus Baghdadi Saleh and composed by the musician Mikhail Girgis El Batanouny and Fr Philotheus in the late 19th or early 20th century. Fr Philotheus is a venerated modern saint known for his efforts in education and defending Orthodox faith. He was known for eloquence (which is apparent in the hymn) which also made him a representative of the church meeting political leaders on behalf of Pope Kerolos V. He has lots of books and sermons, his biography can be found here st-takla.org/Saints/Coptic-Orthodox-Saints-Biography/Coptic-Saints-Story_1364.html
There is a Coptic translation of the hymn but it's not used in liturgy as it's always chanted in the original Arabic, I added it in the Coptic captions and it also can be found in the links below. There is a performance in Coptic by the Heritage of the Coptic Orthodox Church chorus, you can download their app from here copticheritage.org/library/productions/ and you'll find it under the name Nie Khoros Teero or from here www.athanasiusdeacons.net/data/ViewHymns.aspx?id=444 from "sources of the melody" tab then the one by the Coptic Heritage chorus. (You'll have to right click or long press the download button then choose save link or download link).

    So, I did more research into the hymn as promised. I found a paper on it, “Coptic Bilingualism and Hymn-Writing: A Study of the Glorification Hymn Agios Istin” by George Ghaly which was published in Coptica Volume 10, 2011 (Coptica is a Journal dedicated to the publishing of scholarly articles in the study of Christianity in Egypt. its publishers are St. Shenouda the Archimandrite Coptic Society and St. Mark Foundation for Coptic History Studies.) www.stshenouda.org/publication/coptica The paper explains the eccentricity of the language of the hymn with: 1-Bohairicization, "a process where a Bohairic text uses a non-standard form of a word usually from a Sahidic predecessor." 2-Bilingualism and code switching. 3-The poetic and linguistic structure of the hymn, as the hymn "has five distinct elements: 1. Trinitarian formula, 2. acrostic framework, the first, second, and third line of each stanza follow the letters of the Greek alphabet in order 3. poetic meter and rhyme, 4. poetic diction and 5. repetition and deliberate deviation from standard bilingual linguistic code to preserve rhyme and meter." Which, according to the author, has led to the hymn exhibiting these features: -A mix of standard/non-standard Coptic and standard/non-standard Greek vocabulary and grammar. -Appearing as Greek, but linguistically exhibiting Coptic as the dominate language in grammar and code-switching. -A high degree of deviations from standard Greek or standard Coptic. Which according to the author is found frequently in late liturgical texts, especially the Glorification Rite corpus, in texts from the seventeenth to the twentieth century when Coptic was only used as a liturgical language. Also, the author explains that a controversy regarding the hymn seemingly attributing Christological doctrine to the wrong person of the Trinity with the hymn repetition of a structured element following the formula "’X’ are you, O Father. ‘Y,’ [who] in the likeness of our lowly state, is ‘Z’ [ and ‘Y’] is of the Holy Spirit. ‘X’ is a divine Trinitarian characteristic describing the first person of the Trinity, God the Father. Every stanza has a different characteristic. Although our hymn-writer doesn't explicitly say it, the subject of the second sentence, ‘Y’, is the second person of the Trinity, the Logos. He describes Christ's incarnation with the phrase ‘in the likeness of our lowly state’ or ‘in a human manner.’ The incarnated Logos ‘Y’ is described with a Christological characteristic ‘Z’. Finally, he reinforces the fundamental Christological expression found in the Nicene Creed: the incarnated Logos ‘Y’ is of the Holy Spirit. In each stanza, only three words change (marked by ‘X’, ‘Y’ and ‘Z’)." So, the hymn always uses allegory to describe the Son. The author believes that the hymn shouldn't be considered wrong or corrupted in light of the above, on the other hand, many people believe that it's a corrupted text and needs to be removed, and you can find articles discussing this online like in www.freeorthodoxmind.org/2012/10/blog-post.html Worth mentioning that this is one of the few hymns that have this eccentricity as mentioned above, most hymns either are standard Coptic or standard Greek or have certain parts in Coptic and others in Greek but separate from each other.

But if you in general are looking for a orthodox church, try going to a Armenian , Syria, Coptic orthodox church.
