Our Lord and King of Peace

Yealemin bedel yesewin gif ayto

Zetena zetegnun melaektun tito

Tsidkin lemefetsem bedelin atfito

Yeselamu meri yeselamu dagna

Amlak tewelede tetemeke legna

Seeing the sins of the world oppression of mankind

He came down leaving 99 legions behind

To fulfill righteousness and free us from our bind

Our Lord and King of Peace and our judge full of grace

Jesus Christ is truly born and baptized for our sake

The mighty King whom the highest heavens could not bear

For when He was born and baptized to make us pure

The mountains skipped like rams trembling out of fear

Our Lord and King of Peace and our judge full of grace

Jesus Christ is truly born and baptized for our sake

The waters became troubled the Jordan turned to flee

Before the Lord’s face it could not stand to be seen

Just as David foretold within his prophecy

Our Lord and King of Peace and our judge full of grace

Jesus Christ is truly born and baptized for our sake

As he founded righteousness in the Jordan River

Came from the clouds above the Heavenly Father

Testifying to His Son’s true divine nature

Our Lord and King of Peace and our judge full of grace

Jesus Christ is truly born and baptized for our sake

Just as we find it written in the Holy Gospel

The Holy Spirit came upon Him as a dove

Pointing His wings to the Son and Father above

Our Lord and King of Peace and our judge full of grace

Jesus Christ is truly born and baptized for our sake

Witnessing the waters flee and the mountains leaping

The heavens were opened and the clouds were speaking

On this day the world has seen this great mystery

Our Lord and King of Peace and our judge full of grace

Jesus Christ is truly born and baptized for our sake

Yeselamu meri yeselamu dagna

Amlak tewelede tetemeke legna
