Come, build my Church
Andres Ranoa, OFM
Come, build my Church it’s falling to ruin
That’s what the Father tells me to do
Give stones and mortar, lets’ build together
This lowly house of God.
Chorus:
Praised be the Lord, praised be the Lord!
Praised be the Lord, O my soul
O praised the Lord, praise the Lord!
To ev’ry town and village and valley
Preach what the good Lord has done for us
Tell of His mercy, sing of His love
Let man glorify His name. (Cho)
Be poor in spirit and in your living
Live like the larks and doves up above
Care not for what this world can provide us
Trust in God’s loving care. (Cho)
Itayo ang naguhong simbahan
Yan ang hiling sa ‘tin ng Ama
Ating itindig at pagtulungan
Dukha Niyang tahanan.
Koro:
Pagdaygon ang Dios,pagdaygon ang Dios
Pagdaygon ang Dios Amahan
Pagdaygon ang Dios!
Sa bawat nayon, lambak at bayan
Dalhin ang Kanyang kabutihan
Awitin ang pag-ibig Niya
At laluwalhatian. (Koro)
Maging dukkha sa diwa at buhay
Tulad ng ibon sa himpapawid
H’wag isipin daigdig ng yaman
Manalig sa Maykapal. (Koro)
