Easter Songs
This is the day the Lord has acted
This is the day that the Lord acted,
may it be our joy and our gladness!
Give thanks to the Lord for He is good,
for his mercy is eternal
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Let the house of Israel say it
His mercy is eternal
Let the house of Aaron say it.
His mercy is eternal
Let the faithful of the Lord say it.
His mercy is eternal.
Listen, there are songs of victory
In the shops of the righteous
The right hand of the Lord is powerful,
The right hand of the Lord is exalted,
the right hand of the Lord is powerful,
The right hand of the Lord is exalted.
Open to me the doors of triumph
And I will enter to give thanks to the Lord
This is the door of the Lord
The winners will enter through it.
I must die, I will live
To sing the deeds of the Lord.
The stone that the mason rejected
It is now the cornerstone
It is the Lord who has done it
This has been a clear miracle

Because you were my salvation.
a lonely lord
One Lord, one faith,
one baptism, one God and Father.
Called to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace,
we sing and proclaim:
Called to form one body in the same Spirit, we sing and
we proclaim:
Called to share a common hope in Christ, we sing and
we proclaim:
to the table
Come closer to the table,
in that Christ is given to us out of love.
Let's offer what we are to Jesus
He is going to transform us into Him.
What an admirable exchange,
in that Christ frees us from evil!
Let's come into His presence,
to dress ourselves in his divinity.
Father, we thank you,
through your son Jesus our Lord,
by the Holy Spirit,
Make us worthy to receive your gift.

We met you, sir
Walking along the road we stumbled upon You, Lord,
you acted like you were just bumping into us, you engaged us in conversation.
Your words had the strength of life and love.
She placed hope and fire with her heart.
We recognized you, Lord, in the breaking of the bread,
you know us, Lord, at the breaking of the bread. (BIS)
Reaching the crossroads, you continued, Lord,
we gave you our shelter, roof, food, and warmth;
Sitting together as friends to share dinner,
There we met you while sharing the bread.
Walking on the paths we stumble, Lord,
in all the pilgrims who need love;
slaves and oppressed people seeking freedom,
hungry, defenseless, to whom we give bread.

Thank you, be given to the Father,
what happened to His Kingdom,
where one lives on love.
Joy, joy, brothers,
that if we want each other today,
He resurrected.
If we die with Him, we live with Him,
with Him we sing: Hallelujah!

the rivers of Paradise saw your white gaze.
God dressed you in gold and silver, Queen of creation.
Daughter of the people, Maria, Mother of beautiful love.
He has given you the flower of the wheat and the fruit of the olive tree,
from the promised land, it will satisfy you with milk and honey.
He has placed his seal within your heart.
Daughter of the people, Mary, Mother of beautiful love.
