SONGS FOR THE ADVENT SEASON
O COME, DIVINE MESSIAH
Refrain:
O come, Divine Messiah, O Word of God and Marys Son:
we long to see your triumph when sin and death are done!
Lord Jesus, come! Come to your own!
With eager eyes, we watch the skies
'till on the clouds You take Your Throne! (Refrain)
Lord Jesus, come! Come to our earth
and there begin to banish sin
and bring us all to heavenly birth! (Refrain)
Dear Savior, haste! Come, come to earth!
Dispel the night and show Your Face
and bid us hail the dawn of grace. (Refrain)
O COME, O COME, EMMANUEL
O come, O come, Immanuel,
and ransom captive Israel
that mourns in lonely exile here
until the Son of God appear.
Refrain:
Rejoice! Rejoice! Immanuel
shall come to you, O Israel.
O come, O Wisdom from on high,
who ordered all things mightily;
to us the path of knowledge show
and teach us in its ways to go. (Refrain)
O come, O come, great Lord of might,
who to your tribes on Sinais height
in ancient times did give the law
in cloud and majesty and awe. (Refrain)
LET HEAVEN REJOICE!
Refrain:
Let heaven rejoice and earth be glad.
Let all creation sing!
Let children proclaim to every land:
Hosanna to our King
Sound the trumpet into the night;
The day of the Lord is near.
Wake his people,
lift your voice,
proclaim it to the world. (Refrain)
Rise in splendor,
shake off your sleep,
put on your robes of joy,
And in the morning you shall
see the glory of the Lord. (Refrain)
BALANG ARAW
Balang araw ang liwanag matatanaw ng bulag
Ang kagandahan ng umaga pagmamasdan sa tuwina
Balang araw mumutawi sa bibig ng mga pipi
Pasasalamat at papuri awit ng luwalhati
Koro:
Aleluya, aleluya
Narito nang Manunubos
Luwalhatiin ang Diyos!
Balang araw tatakbo ang pilay at ang lumpo
Magsasayaw sa kagalakan
Iindak sa katuwaan. (Koro)
HALINA HESUS, HALINA
Koro:
Halina, Hesus, halina
Halina, Hesus, halina!
Sa simula isinaloob Mo,
O Dyos, kaligtasan ng tao
Sa takdang panahon ay tinawag Mo
Isang bayang lingkod sa Iyo. (Koro)
Gabay ng Iyong bayang hinirang
Ang pag-asa sa Iyong Mesiya.
Emmanuel ang pangalang bigay sa Kanya:
Nasa atin ang Dyos tuwina. (Koro)
Isinilang Sya ni Maria,
Birheng tangi, Hiyas ng Judea
At Hesus ang pangalang bigay sa Kanya:
Aming Dyos ay Tagapagadya. (Koro)
Darating muli sa takdang araw,
Upang tanang taoy tawagin
At sa puso Mo aming Amay bigkisin
Sa pag-ibig na di mamaliw. (Koro)
