9 Days Novena to Sto. Nino de Cebu

HOLY GOD, WE PRAISE THY NAME

Holy God, we praise Thy Name.
Lord of all! We bow before Thee;
All on earth Thy scepter claim,
All in heaven above adore Thee;
Infinite Thy vast domain,
Everlasting is Thy reign.

Hark The loud celestial hymn;
Angels' choirs above are raising;
Cherubim and Seraphim
In unceasing chorus praising;
Fill the heavens with sweet accord,
Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord!
Fill the heav'ns with sweet accord,
Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord!

In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen!

Señor Santo Niño Hymn

VERSE 1

One day to these Islands as gift and in pledge
God sent You to us O beloved Child
And always You have been the light of our souls,
The guide of our people, the flame in our hearts.

(REFRAIN)

Señor Santo Niño, with Your scepter guide our people
who hail You King forever;
Filipinas is Your Kingdom.
Señor Santo Niño, in Your hand the world finds its rest;
proclaim Your Truth and justice, bring to men Your peace and love.

VERSE 2

The ship You were sailing arrived at our shores
To conquer this land, the pearl of the seas; But You had decided to stay in this soil
To conquer our people and give us a name.

VERSE 3

The queen and the rajah, accepting the faith,
Received You in their arms and fell on their knees;
They welcomed Your Presence and called on Your Name
To ask for Your blessing and help in their needs.

VERSE 4

More ships in the Orient with soldiers arrived,
And searching for gold, they found You instead;
Legaspi, Urdaneta, the rajah, the queen,
Their subjects, our people, proclaimed You their King.

VERSE 5

Now one as a nation we pay You respect
Our people did pledge along time ago.
We ask You to hear the prayers of all;
The sad and forsaken, the poor and the sick.
