Theme : Rooted and built up in Jesus Christ, Firm in the Faith  (Col 2:7)




Firmes en la fe 
(World Youth Day 2011Theme Song)


Firmes en la fe, firmes en la fe!
We go forward in Christ, 
he's our companion and he is Lord!
Glory be to him! Glory be to him! 
We go forward in Christ, made stronger in our faith.

Your love, it builds us up and keeps us rooted,
Your cross, it gives us constant strength and courage,
Your flesh, it ever saves us and sustains us,
Your blood, it flows to cheer us and renew us.
Oh, Christ, you are our brother,
Oh, Christ, you are our friend, you are our Lord,
!Make us firm in the faith, make us firm in the faith!

Firmes en la fe...

Your hands, they hold us when we have been wounded,
Your eyes, they purify the way we see things,
Your lips, they speak to us words of forgiveness,
Your feet, they guide our steps to find life's fullness.
Oh, Christ, you are our brother,
Oh, Christ, you are our friend, you are our Lord,
!Make us firm in the faith, make us firm in the faith!
Firmes en la fe...

 We are the young, and Mary journeys with us,
And like a joyful bride she sings your praises;
With her we too shall sing and praise your triumph,
Because already death has been defeated.
Oh, Christ, you are our brother,
Oh, Christ, you are our friend, you are our Lord,
!Make us firm in the faith, make us firm in the faith!
Firmes en la fe...

Lumière Du Monde (Light of the World)

(World Youth Day 2002 Theme)




Aquél a quien hemos podido ver
Aquél que nuestras manos han podido sentir
Aquél a quien pudimos escuchar
El que reconocimos en nuestro corazón,
aquí está; os lo anunciamos hoy.
Resplandece con su luz,
es del mundo el Salvador.
Hay tantos entre tanta oscuridad
y tantos en el mundo que duermen sin cesar.
Hagámosles, hermanos, despertar,
salir de su dolor, brindarles amistad
y juntos enfrentar el temporal,
seamos en la noche pregoneros de la luz
LA LUZ EN EL MUNDO
SAL DE LA TIERRA
SEAMOS PARA EL MUNDO
EL ROSTRO DEL AMOR
LA LUZ EN EL MUNDO
CRISTO ES LA LUZ
SEREMOS SU REFLEJO
Y POR SIEMPRE BRILLAREMOS
CON SU LUZ
Hay tantos que se pierden al buscar
sentido de vivir, razones para amar.
Si los pudiéramos acompañar,
compartir su dolor, presentarles a Jesús,
quizás ellos pudiesen comprender
que es en el partir del pan
que podemos renacer.
LA LUZ EN EL MUNDO…
No servirá la sal sin su sabor
y no iluminará, escondida, la luz.
La Gracia llene nuestro corazón
y el Espíritu de Dios nos inunde con su Don.
Que nuestra vida alumbre con la luz,
La justicia y el amor
De nuestro Señor Jesús
Celui que de nos yeux nous avons vu,
Celui que de nos mains nous avons pu toucher,
Celui que nos oreilles ont entendu,
Celui que dans nos cours nous avons rencontré…
Voilà Celui que nous vous annonçons
Et qui a resplendi
Sur la terre ou nous vivons!
So many in our world drift into sleep,
while others only know a darkness without end.
Let brothers rise to call them from the deep!
Let sisters take their hands
to heal and be their friends.
Together, let us stand against the storm
and in the heart of night be the watchers of the morn.
Refrain :
Lumière du monde!
Sel de la terre!
Soyons pour le monde
Visage de l´amour!
The light of the world
Christ is our light.
We shine with his brightness,
The reflection of his light
From day to day!
Hay tantos que se pierden al buscar
Sentido de vivir, razones para amar.
Si los pudiéramos acompañar
Compartir su dolor, presentarles a Jesús;
Quizás ellos pudiesen comprender
Que es en el partir del pan
Que podemos renacer.
Refrain
La gente dove andare più non sa,
In noi cercando va l´amore che non ha:
Il senso della vita troverà
Facendo insieme a noi la Comunità…
Così potrà conoscere
Gesù Spezzando il pane che
Vita eterna donerà!
Refrain

Theme: The Word became flesh and dwelt among us (Jn 1:14)







Emmanuel
(World Youth Day 2000 Theme Song)


Dall´orizzonte una grande luce
viaggia nella storia
e lungo gli anni ha vinto il buio
facendosi Memoria,
e illuminando la nostra vita
chiaro ci rivela
che non si vive
se non si cerca
la Verità…
… l´Emmanuel
1. Da mille strade arriviamo a Roma
sui passi della fede,
sentiamo l´eco della Parola
che risuona ancora
da queste mura, da questo cielo
per il mondo intero:
è vivo oggi,
è l´Uomo Vero
Cristo tra noi.
Ritornello:
Siamo qui
sotto la stessa luce
sotto la sua croce
cantando ad una voce.
E´ l´Emmanuel
Emmanuel, Emmanuel.
E´ L´Emmanuel, Emmanuel.
2. Dalla città di chi ha versato
il sangue per amore
ed ha cambiato il vecchio mondo
vogliamo ripartire.
Seguendo Cristo, insieme a Pietro,
rinasce in noi la fede,
Parola viva
che ci rinnova
e cresce in noi.
Ritornello…
3. Un grande dono che Dio ci ha fatto
è Cristo, il suo Figlio,
e l’umanità è rinnovata,
è in Lui salvata.
E´ vero uomo, è vero Dio,
è il Pane della Vita,
che ad ogni uomo
ai suoi fratelli
ridonerà.
Ritornello…
4. La morte è uccisa, la vita ha vinto,
è Pasqua in tutto il mondo,
un vento soffia in ogni uomo
lo Spirito fecondo.
Che porta avanti nella storia
la Chiesa sua sposa,
sotto lo sguardo
di Maria,
comunità.
Ritornello…
5. Noi debitori del passato
di secoli di storia,
di vite date per amore,
di santi che han creduto,
di uomini che ad alta quota
insegnano a volare,
di chi la storia sa cambiare,
come Gesù.
Ritornello…
6. E´ giunta un´era di primavera,
è tempo di cambiare.
E´ oggi il giorno sempre nuovo
per ricominciare,
per dare svolte, parole nuove
e convertire il cuore,
per dire al mondo, ad ogni uomo:
Signore Gesù.
Ritornello…
(su di un tono)
E´ l´Emmanuel, Dio con noi
Cristo tra noi.
Sotto la sua croce
E´ l´Emmanuel, Emmanuel
Sotto la stessa croce
cantando ad una voce.
(su di un tono)
E´ l´Emmanuel, Dio con noi
Cristo tra noi.
Sotto la sua croce
E´ l´Emmanuel, Emmanuel
Sotto la stessa croce
cantando ad una voce.
This city which has poured out
its life-blood out of love
and has transformed the ancient world
will send us on our way,
by following Christ, together with Peter,
our faith is born again,
the living word
that makes us new
and grows in our hearts.
Ce don si grand que Dieu nous a fait
le Christ son Fils unique;
l’humanité renouvelée
par lui est sauvée.
Il est vrai homme, il est vrai Dieu,
il est le pain de vie
qui pour chaque homme
pour tous ses frères
se donne encore,
se donne encore.
Llegó una era de primavera
el tiempo de cambiar:
hoy es el día siempre nuevo
para recomenzar,
cambiar de ruta y con palabras nuevas
cambiar el corazón
para decir al mundo, a todo el mundo:
Cristo Jesús.
Y aquí
bajo la misma luz,
bajo su misma cruz,
cantamos a una voz.
R. È l’Emmanuel, l’Emmanuel, l’Emmanuel.

Tell The World

(World youth Day 1995 Theme Song)

For god so loved the world
He gave us him only son
Jesus christ our savior
His most precious one
He has sent us his message of love
And sends those who hear
To bring the message to everyone
In a voice loud and clear

Let us tell the world of his love
The greatest love the world has known
Search the world for those who have walked
Astray and lead them home
Fill the world's darkest corners
With his light from up above
Walk every step, every mile, every road
And tell the world, tell the world of his love

(tell the world of his love)
(tell the world of his love)

Our lord our savior our king
Emmanuelle prince of peace
Begotten of the father's love
Born to set us free
Let heaven and earth sing his phrases
His righteousness proclaim
Let every heart rejoice in his love
And magnify his name

Let us tell the world of his love
The greatest love the world has known
Search the world for those who have walked
Astray and lead them home
Fill the world's darkest corners
With his light from up above
Walk every step, every mile, every road
And tell the world, tell the world of his love

(tell the world of his love)

Let us tell the world of his love
The greatest love the world has known
Search the world for those who have walked
Astray and lead them home
Fill the world's darkest corners
With his light from up above
Walk every step, every mile, every road
And tell the world, tell the world of his love

Somos Los Jóvenes
(World Youth Day 1989 Theme Song)

entre tanta falsedad,
buscamos hoy un camino
con horizontes de libertad.

No queremos más cuentos
sino una única verdad
para construir un mundo nuevo,
una nueva humanidad.

Somos los jovenes del dos mil
peregrinos siempre en busca
de la fuente de la libertad.
Seguimos el camino de Santiago
que nos lleva a Jesucristo
Camino, Vida y Verdad.

El Aposto con voz firme
hoy nos llama a su ciudad
nos muestra el verdadero camino
a la conquista de la libertad;
nos hará mensajeros
testigos de la Verdad
para incendiar con el amor
esta nuestra sociedad.

Somos los jovenes del dos mil
peregrinos siempre en busca
de la fuente de la libertad.
Seguimos el camino de Santiago
que nos lleva a Jesucristo
Camino, Vida y Verdad.

El Papa, aún peregrino,
al corazon nos habla aqui;
la mies ya ha madurado:
él espera solo nuestro si.
Desde este "rincon de cielo"
por el mundo nos mandará,
por una tierra sin fronteras
cuyo destino es la felicidad.

Somos los jovenes del dos mil
peregrinos siempre en busca
de la fuente de la libertad.
Seguimos el camino de Santiago
que nos lleva a Jesucristo

Un Nuevo Sol Hymn
(World Youth Day Theme Song 1987)

Una tierra que no tiene fronteras
sino manos que juntas formarán
una cadena más fuerte
que la guerra y que la muerte.
Lo sabemos: el camino es el amor
Una patria más justa y más fraterna
donde todos construyamos la unidad
donde nadie es desplazado,
porque todos son llamados.

Lo sabemos…

Un nuevo sol se levanta
sobre la nueva civilización
que nace hoy.
Una cadena más fuerte
que el odio y que la muerte
lo sabemos: el camino es el amor.
La justicia es la fuerza de la paz
el amor, quien hace perdonar.
La verdad, la fuerza que nos da liberación.

Lo sabemos…

El que tiene comparte su riqueza
y el que sabe no impone su verdad.
El que manda entiende
que el poder es un servicio.

Lo sabemos…

El que cree contagia con su vida
y el dolor se cubre con amor
porque el hombre se siente solidario
solidario con el mundo.

Lo sabemos…
