Entrance hymn.

Qué alegría cuando me dijeron:
"Vamos a la casa del Señor"
Ya está pisando nuestros pies
tus umbrales, Jerusalén.

Jerusalén está fundada
como ciudad bien compacta.
Allá suben las tribus,
las tribus del Señor.
What a joy it was when they said to me,
"Let's go to the house of the Lord"
Our feet are already standing
within your gates, Jerusalem.

Jerusalem is founded
as a compact city.
There the tribes go up,
the tribes of the Lord.
