Bid us remember Christ is our Light.
Many are lonely, Who will be neighbor?
Where there is caring Christ is our Light.

Bids us remember Christ is our Life.
Many are hungry, Who will be neighbor?

Some may be strangers, Who will be neighbor?
Where there’s a welcome Christ is our Friend.

1 Ya se oscurece: luces del pueblo
traen el recuerdo, Cristo es la Luz.
Hay muchos solos, ¿quién es hermano?
Donde hay amparo, Cristo es la Luz.
2 Ya se oscurece: mesas servidas
traen el recuerdo, Cristo es Vivir.
Muchos con hambre, ¿quién es hermana?
Si compartimos, Cristo es Vivir.
3 Ya se oscurece: niños dormidos
traen el recuerdo, Cristo es la Paz.
Gente olvidada, ¿quién es hermana?
Cuando hay cariño, Cristo es la Paz.
4 Ya se oscurece: y al reunirnos,
no olvidemos Cristo es Amor.
Muchos extraños, ¿quién es hermano?
Cuando acogemos, Cristo es Amor. Topics: Discipleship; Discipulado; Evening Prayer; Oración Vespertina; Jesucristo Amigo; Jesus Christ Friend; Jesucristo Luz; Jesus Christ Light; Justice; Justicia Scripture: Proverbs 18:24 Languages: English; Spanish Tune Title: EVENING HYMN
