Gloria

The chants vibrate, explosive with joy
I will join my People at the Cathedral
Thousands of voices unite this day
To sing at our patron saint festival

Glory to the Lord! Glory to the Lord!
Glory to the patron of our land: El Salvador
There is no redemption from another Lord
Only one patron, our Divine Savior

For being the just and defender of the oppressed
Because you love us and truly want us
Today we come, all your People determined
To proclaim our worth and dignity

Now, Lord, you can be glorified
Just as before on Mount Tabor
When you see your People transformed
And there is life and freedom in El Salvador

But the gods of power and money
Oppose the transfiguration
That's why now you, Lord, are the first
To raise your arm against oppression
