(Verse 1)
In the manger of Bethlehem, under a guiding star,
The light of this world was born, the Word that God sent.
Of the lineage of David, and in Mary His dwelling place,
A virgin gave birth to the long-awaited promise.
Ancient prophecies foretold His coming,
Of the promised Messiah, the prophets already spoke.
Emmanuel, God with us, love incarnate,
From before time began, His plan was already laid out.
(Chorus)
Oh, Jesus, divine love, endless mercy!
Your passion gave us life, Your goodness has no end.
For all humanity, Your redeeming sacrifice,
Souls that trust in You find peace and salvation.
Your name is hope, a balm to sorrow,
Our guide and our beacon, our great Comforter.
(Verse 2)
In Nazareth you grew up, with wisdom and fervor,
Then you came to the Jordan, to begin your work.
With John the Baptist you prepared the way,
Your ministry of grace began in Galilee.
You taught forgiveness, love for your enemies,
You healed the sick, you gave shelter to the weary.
You walked on water, you multiplied the loaves,
And with your voice, you awakened death from its slumber.
(Verse 1)
Heaven wept, with deep sorrow,
When God saw our ceaseless wandering.
He repented, in His pure heart,
Of the creation that did not know how to live.
But His love, greater than sorrow,
Designed a path, a redeemer.
(Chorus)
Oh, immense love! Heavenly mercy,
He gave us His Son, for our wickedness.
Faith, hope, unparalleled goodness,
Jesus came into the world to calm the storm.
But how could humankind forget
Such a great blessing, such a noble gift?
(Verse 2)
With every step, with every glance,
Jesus was the light to illuminate.
He showed us the path, the truth, the peace,
A divine echo that never fades.
His life, His death, His great ascent,
All for us, so that we may be reborn.
(Chorus)
Oh, immense love! Heavenly mercy,
He gave us His Son for our sin.
Faith, hope, unparalleled goodness,
Jesus came into the world to calm the storm.
But how could humankind forget
Such a great blessing, such a noble gift?
(Bridge)
We have failed, how can we respond?
To so much grace that makes us grow.
A contrite heart, a sincere voice,
To honor the sacrifice of our great God.
May every breath be gratitude,
For that promise, for that virtue.
(Chorus)
Oh, immense love! Heavenly mercy,
He gave us His Son, for our sin.
Faith, hope, unparalleled goodness,
Jesus came into the world, to calm the storm.
But how could humankind forget,
Such a great blessing, such a noble gift?
(Outro)
Remember Your gift, which gave us life,
Your infinite love, is never forgotten.
Amen.
