Lyrics
Venimos a tu casa
Con cantos de alegría
Venimos a adorarte,
Rendirte honor y amarte
¡Oh Padre Celestial!
Un pueblo ayer quisiste
Un pueblo aquí te aclama
Señor de ayer y siempre;
Oye nuestra proclama
¡Oh Padre Celestial!
Traemos en nosotros
La fe de nuestros Padres
Queremos aumentarla
Queremos que la ilustres,
¡Oh Padre Celestial!
Transforme nuestras vidas
La fuerza de tu verbo
Impulse nuestros actos
El fuego de tu soplo
¡Oh Padre Celestial!
¡Oh Padre Celestial!

Lyrics translation
We came to your house
With songs of joy
We came to worship you,
To honor and love you
O Heavenly Father!
A village yesterday you wanted
A town here hails you
Lord of yesterday and always;
Hear our proclamation
O Heavenly Father!
We bring in US
The faith of our parents
We want to increase it
We want you to illustrate it,
O Heavenly Father!
Transform our lives
The strength of your verb
Drive our actions
The fire of your breath
O Heavenly Father!
O Heavenly Father!
