[Verse 1]
From the gates of Heaven wide,
Through the ages, side by side,
Built upon a rock so strong,
The Catholic Church, we sing the song.
One, holy, catholic, apostolic,
A light to guide us, pure and symbolic.
Through trials, storms, and endless night,
The Catholic Church stands in Heaven’s light.
[Chorus]
Praise to the Catholic Church, divine,
A holy house, where saints align,
In His name, we rise and stand,
One body, one spirit, by His hand.
Praise to the Catholic Church, forever bright,
Our refuge, our strength, our guiding light.
[Verse 2]
From Peter’s faith, the Church was born,
A covenant made, and hearts reborn.
In every Mass, His love we share,
In every prayer, we feel His care.
Through apostles' hands, His truth proclaimed,
In every heart, His love remains.
The Eucharist, His body true,
A gift of grace to see us through.
[Chorus]
Praise to the Catholic Church, divine,
A holy house, where saints align,
In His name, we rise and stand,
One body, one spirit, by His hand.
Praise to the Catholic Church, forever bright,
Our refuge, our strength, our guiding light.
[Bridge]
In the name of Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
We lift our voices, praise the most.
One faith, one hope, one baptism pure,
In the Catholic Church, His love will endure.
[Chorus]
Praise to the Catholic Church, divine,
A holy house, where saints align,
In His name, we rise and stand,
One body, one spirit, by His hand.
Praise to the Catholic Church, forever bright,
Our refuge, our strength, our guiding light.
[Outro]
One, holy, catholic, apostolic,
The Catholic Church, eternal and symbolic.
Praise be to God, forever true,
His Church, His bride, forever new.
