This joyous Puerto Rican Christmas carol From a Distant Home fits beautifully into sixteen bells.
Spanish:
De tierra lejana venimos a verte, Oh brillante estrella que anuncias la aurora Al recién nacido que es Rey de los reyes, Como es Dios el Niño le regalo incienso, Al Niño del cielo que bajo a la tierra, |
English:
From a distant home the Savior we come seeking, Lovely eastern star that tells us of God’s morning, Glowing gold I bring the new-born babe so holy, Frankincense I bring the child of God’s own choosing, Bitter myrrh have I to give the infant Jesus, |
Hymn tune: ISLA DEL ENCANTO
