International Eucharistic Congress

Lyrics

Christ In Us, Our Hope Of Glory
- by Filipino composer,
Jay-arr Felisilda Librando

[Verse 1]
We felt your word
burning within us
Your word unlocked
the hardness
of our hearts
And opened our eyes 
that we may see you
Hidden in
the broken bread

[Chorus]
Lord you laid down your life
as bread and wine we see
Gave strength to our hearts
and made us shine with glee
When we eat the bread
and drink the cup of wine
We believe that
Christ in us, 
is our hope of glory

[Verse 2]
You brought a ray of light
And you rekindled our hope
And led our hearts
to yearn for your love
For in you
is our hope of glory

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Through your own flesh,
now made living
And by the Spirit
made life-giving
You offer life to us
And as your sweat
became like drops of blood
Falling down
upon the ground
You shed your blood for us
Amen!

[Chorus]

[Ending]
We believe that
Christ in us, 
is our hope of glory

IEC 2016 Hymn

Last October 2013, the IEC Secretariat hosted a nationwide Theme Song Composition Contest as part of the preparations for the upcoming 51st International Eucharistic Congress to be held  in Cebu City, Cebu, Philippines.

The IEC Secretariat commissioned the best Filipino composers especially those who have made it their mission to serve the Church through music. Out of the 20 song entries, the song entitled “Christ in Us, Our Hope of Glory” was chosen as the winning entry. The song is composed by Jay-arr Felisilda Librando, a theology seminarian from Lapu-lapu City, Cebu.

The interpreters of the official version presented in Rome are Julie Anne San Jose & Jomer Limatog, Jr.
