116. Oh, pueblecito de Belén

1 ¡Oh, pueblecito de Belén,
durmiendo en dulce paz!
Los astros brillan sobre ti
con suave claridad;
Mas en tus quietas calles
hoy surge eterna luz,
Y la promesa de Emanuel
se cumple en Jesús.

2 Al niño que ha nacido hoy
el coro celestial
Entona con sonora voz
un cántico triunfal.
¡El santo nacimiento,
estrellas, proclamad;
A Dios el Rey cantad loor;
honor y gloria dad!

3 Con celestial serenidad,
desciende nuestro don;
Así concede Dios su amor
a cada corazón;
No se oye su venida,
mas el Señor vendrá
Al que le quiera recibir;
con él habitará.

4 El Santo Niño de Belén
es nuestro Salvador,
Quien por su sangre perdonó
el mal con tanto amor;
Unimos nuestras voces
al coro angelical
Y proclamamos por doquier
su gloria celestial.
