VERSE 1 (Spanish)
Tiempos difíciles nos ha tocado vivir
El mundo avanza y no para de cambiar
Y el vació no deja de existir
Y me pregunto que podemos hoy hacer

VERSE 1 (English translation)
We live in hard times
The world advances and doesn’t stop to change
And the emptiness doesn’t cease to exist
And you ask me what we can do

VERSE 2 (Spanish)
También tu escuela necesita del señor
De tu constancia y de tu consagración
La oportunidad la tienes no la dejes ir
Dile al señor conmigo cuentas de corazón

VERSE 2 (English translation)
Your school also needs God
His determination and dedication
Don’t let go of the opportunity you have
To tell God with me the stories of your heart
