HYMN FOR THE JUBILEE YEAR 2025

Pilgrims of Hope

Original text: Pierangelo Sequeri

English translation: Andrew Wadsworth

Music: Francesco Meneghello

 

Like a flame my hope is burning,

may my song arise to you:

Source of life that has no ending,

on life’s path I trust in you.

 

Ev’ry nation, tongue, and people

find a light within your Word.

Scattered fragile sons and daughters

find a home in your dear Son.

 

God, so tender and so patient,

dawn of hope, you care for all.

Heav’n and earth are recreated

by the Spirit of Life set free.

 

Raise your eyes, the wind is blowing,

for our God is born in time.

Son made man for you and many

who will find the way in him.
