THE UST HYMN LIVE

Описание: Entertainment: THE UST HYMN

Lyrics by Jose Maria Hernandez
Music by Dean Jose Esteban Anguita
Orchestration by Fr. Manuel Maramba, OSB
———

Seat of Aquinas, majestic enduring
the storms of the ages.
Shrine of our ancient fathers,
Carved in these isles domain.

This is the castle imperious.
This is the home of our sages.
Blessed by the Cross of the angels,
Gift of our Mother Spain!

Deep in her echoing chambers
Flames of eternal yearning
Cast their benignant shadows
athwart this beloved land.

Keeping the torches of freedom
and heave forever burning.
Deep in the heart led by the Saviour’s
command.

(Chorus)

God of all nations,
merciful Lord of our restless being,
sweep with your golden lilies
this fountain of purest light.

Trace with the sails of the galleons
the dream beyond our seeing.
Touch with the flame of your kindness
the gloom of our darkest night.

Keep us in beauty and truth and virtues
impassioned embrace,
ever your valiant legions
Imbued with unending grace!

It is the winner from a contest held for the 350th Anniversary of UST in 1961. Currently, only the Chorus part is being sung.
