- CCS 388 - Redeemer of Israel
Redeemer of Israel, our only delight,
on whom for a blessing we call,
our shadow by day, and our pillar by night,
our King, our Companion, our All!
We know he is coming to gather his sheep
and plant them in Zion in love;
for why in the valley of death should they weep
or alone in the wilderness rove?
How long we have wandered as strangers in sin
and cried in the desert for thee!
Our foes have rejoiced when our sorrows they’ve seen,
but Israel will shortly be free.
As children of Zion, good tidings for us,
the tokens already appear;
fear not and be just, for the kingdom is ours,
and the hour of redemption is near.
Spanish
Señor, de tu pueblo
el gozo_eres tú,
a ti suplicamos favor,
de día la sombra,
de noche la luz,
Compañero y gran Redentor.
Es cierto que vienes
tu grey a juntar;
tu_amor nos será protección;
del valle de muerte
nos vas a sacar,
y llevarnos a salvo a Sión.
Qué lejos vagamos,
errados del bien,
clamando a ti contra_el mal.
Apiádate pronto,
escucha y ven,
y_a tu pueblo retorna_a salvar.
Hermanos amados,
contentos estad;
las señas seguras veréis,
sed justos y_unidos,
decid la verdad,
y_a su reino así entraréis.
French
Rédempteur bien-aimé,
Sauveur d’Israël,
dont la grâce, nous réclamons,
sois Gardien constant
et Roi éternel,
toujours notre cher Compagnon.
Il viendra au monde
chercher ses brebis
pour les rassembler du désertz ;
ses enfants en peine
seront enfin bénis
en Sion, à nos cœurs si chère.
Longtemps nous avons erré,
étrangers pécheurs
en invoquant ton puissant nomz ;
de nos peines, hélas,
se gaussaient les railleursz ;
mais enfin, le mal nous vaincrons.
Nous, enfants de Sion,
réjouissons-nousz ;
regardons les signes divins,
et ne craignons pas,
car le royaume doux
viendra en ce monde, à la fin.
