Ao Abrir o Culto - 243

We open this worship
In Your name, oh Jesus Christ!
To the young and the adult
Divine light comes to give for this
We will rejoice in Your face
Oh, resurrected Lamb!
With sweetness, yes, in the embraces
To hear what is given to us

Oh, send us Your Word
Through Your Holy Spirit
That in the chest a fire burns
That also dries the tears
Our Father, we implore You
New life for Your Church
Oh, do not delay, for we desire
That purity in us You see

Bless, oh Holy God
Your servants all over the world
Bless our singing
And give life to the dying
Bless the little lambs
The family of Your beloved
Like a bird, that in its nest
Has its children well sheltered
