This song, which was sung in this liturgy during communion, is a popular Spanish hymn composed by Cesáreo Gabaráin in 1974.
Señor, me has mirado a los ojos,
Sonriendo has dicho mi nombre.
En la arena he dejado mi barca:
Junto a Ti buscaré otro mar.
Tú has venido a la orilla,
No has buscado ni a sabios ni a ricos.
Tan sólo quieres que yo te siga.
Señor, me has mirado a los ojos,
Sonriendo has dicho mi nombre.
En la arena he dejado mi barca:
Junto a Ti buscaré otro mar.
Tú sabes bien lo que tengo,
En mi barca no hay oro ni espadas,
Tan sólo redes y mi trabajo.
Señor, me has mirado a los ojos,
Sonriendo has dicho mi nombre.
En la arena he dejado mi barca:
Junto a Ti buscaré otro mar.
Tú necesitas mis manos,
Mi cansancio que a otros descanse,
Amor que quiera seguir amando.
Señor, me has mirado a los ojos,
Sonriendo has dicho mi nombre.

Lord, you have looked into my eyes,
Smiling, you have called my name.
On the sand I have left my boat:
With You I will seek another sea.
You have come to the shore,
You have not sought the wise nor the rich.
You only want me to follow you.
Lord, you have looked into my eyes,
Smiling, you have called my name.
On the sand I have left my boat:
With You I will seek another sea.
You, You know well what I have,
In my boat there is no gold nor swords,
Only nets and my work.
Lord, you have looked into my eyes,
Smiling, you have called my name.
On the sand I have left my boat:
With You I will seek another sea.
You are in need of my hands,
My weariness to give rest to others,
Love that wants to keep on loving.
Lord, you have looked into my eyes,
Smiling, you have called my name.
