//Lord, this is what you did, with others and with myself.//
CHORUS
When your servant arrived here, he told me, "Come with me,
Friend,
//My King has great need for you, come, then, quickly with me."//
2
What a beautiful feast, I'm full of admiration,
How then I arrive? Through His beloved Servant;
From roads, and from the byways; from streets and marketplaces,
//To bring joy to the King and thus fill up your great house.//
3
When You entered the room, to look in on your table,
You said there's need for more to complete all the places,
"Go force them to come in," You ordered in that instant.
//"That my home be filled up of travellers aplenty."//
4
We ask you in one voice, oh, tender-hearted Servant,
That you plead with your King, His blessing be upon us,
And thus rejoice with Him and always be by His side;
//That He lend us His home and give us His protection.//

.................... FELIZ MOMENTO

Acts 9.14 GRATITUDE/ Ps 119.45 JOY
Oh, happy day that fixed my choice,
On thee, my Saviour and my God!
Well, may this glowing heart rejoice,
And tell its raptures all abroad.
CHORUS
Happy day! Happy day!
When Jesus washed my sins away!
He taught me how to watch and pray,
And live rejoicing every day.
Happy day! Happy day!
When Jesus washed my sins away.

'Tis done, the great transaction's done,
I am the Lord's and He is mine;
