[Lyric] Annuntio Vobis Gaudium Magnum English Translation (Pope Francis)

[Intro: Choir Compagnio Aquero and Choir XI ZI]
You are Petrus, and above this rock
I will build my church

[Verse 1: Pope Francis]
Brothers and sisters, good evening!
You know that it was the duty of the Conclave
to give Rome a Bishop.
It seems that my brother Cardinals
have gone to the ends of the earth to get one...
but here we are... I thank you for your welcome.
The diocesan community of Rome
Now has its Bishop. Thank you!
And first of all, I would like to offer a prayer
for our Bishop Emeritus, Benedict XVI.

[Verse 2: Pope Francis]
And now, we take up this journey:
Bishop and People.
This journey of thе Church of Rome
which presides in charity
ovеr all the Churches.
A journey of fraternity, of love,
Of trust among us.
Let us always pray for one another.
Let us pray for the whole world,
that there may be a great spirit of fraternity.
[Outro: Choir Compagnio Aquero and Choir XI ZI]
You are Petrus, and above this rock
I will build my church
You are Petrus, and above this rock
I will build my church
