¡Aleluya! ¡Aleluya!
Himnario El Buen Pastor Cantado
A Triumphant Hymn of Praise and Worship
The song "¡Aleluya! ¡Aleluya!" by Himnario El Buen Pastor Cantado is a powerful hymn that exudes a sense of reverence and adoration. The repeated use of the word "Aleluya" (Hallelujah) sets a tone of jubilant praise, which is a common expression in Christian worship, signifying joy and gratitude towards God. The lyrics are simple yet profound, emphasizing the act of giving glory and honor (prez y loor) to the divine figures central to Christian faith.
The song specifically mentions the Lamb (El Cordero) who was slain, a direct reference to Jesus Christ's sacrifice. This imagery is deeply rooted in Christian theology, where Jesus is often referred to as the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. The acknowledgment of Jesus' worthiness of praise and honor underscores the central Christian belief in His redemptive power and the significance of His sacrifice.
Additionally, the hymn pays homage to the Ancient One on the Throne (Al Anciano que está en el Trono), which is a reference to God the Father, and the Holy Spirit (El Espíritu Santo) who is present among believers. The song beautifully encapsulates the Christian doctrine of the Trinity, highlighting the unity and harmony among the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The concluding lines, "Estos tres testimonios concuerdan en uno, Cristo Jesús," affirm the unity of these three divine witnesses in the person of Jesus Christ, reinforcing the core tenet of the Christian faith.
