Hino para o 150º aniversário da Fundação do Instituto Comboniano
Sedunda-feira, 12 de Junho de 2017
Os Missionários Combonianos do Sudão do Sul compuseram um hino para o 150° aniversário (1867-2017) da Fundação do Instituto Comboniano. “Trata-se de um simples gesto para esta celebração missionária comboniana que surge da nossa terra – disse o P. Guido Oliana, um dos principais promotores da iniciativa –. Gravamos o Hino com os nossos meios pobres. Talvez o resultado poderia ter sido melhor, mas tem um toque original e rústico, com um sabor próprio do Sudão do Sul. É cantado por um grupo de seminaristas do Seminário Maior de Juba e por uma irmã comboniana e uma sua amiga.”. A seguir, publicamos o texto do Hino, em inglês; e, em anexo, a música.
WE ARE CALLED TO GO AND PREACH
We are called to go and preach the joy of the Gospel.
The pierced Heart of Jesus kindles us in love.
We are called to go and preach the joy of the Gospel.
The pierced Heart of Jesus kindles us in love.
1. We are moved by Saint Comboni’s spirit
to be a cenacle of prayerful apostles.
We are born from Jesus’ pierced heart,
and enkindled by his tender love,
and inspired by his divine Spirit,
to go and preach his Gospel of joy.
We are called to go and preach the joy of the Gospel.
The pierced Heart of Jesus kindles us in love.
We are called to go and preach the joy of the Gospel.
The pierced Heart of Jesus kindles us in love.
2. We are called Comboni Missionaries
of the Heart of Jesus Christ the Lord.
This indeed is our inspiration,
and our pride, our cross, and our glory.
We are told to be holy and capable,
well prepared to give our life for Christ.
We are called to go and preach the joy of the Gospel.
The pierced Heart of Jesus kindles us in love.
We are called to go and preach the joy of the Gospel.
The pierced Heart of Jesus kindles us in love.
3. We are called to contemplate the cross
so as to know how God has loved the world.
We are moved to reach out to people
and proclaim the power of the Gospel
that frees people from any evil spirit
and empowers them as children of God.
