O Galileu
Ereni Miranda
The Galilean
Way out in Galilee, far from here
One day the voice of the Galilean rang out
He was sent to that people
But the rebellious crowd didn’t welcome him
This humble and gentle Galilean
The prophet Isaiah spoke of him long before
That he would come to bring good news
But his own hometown didn’t accept him
Holy Galilean
Divine Jesus
I heard your voice and I welcomed you
Now I have the light
This Galilean came to spread the word
And announce the time of salvation
He came to give sight to the blind
And freedom to those held captive
They didn’t believe he was the Messiah
Because he was poor and worked with his hands
He had no home to rest his head
But for humanity, he was the Redeemer
Holy Galilean
Divine Jesus
I heard your voice and I welcomed you
Now I have the light
