May Ten Eighteen Eighty-Six
Brother Felix Manalo
Was chosen to do God's will;
The people of the world saw
That his election was real.
The Lord God's last messenger
Came from the isles of the sea;
Called by the loving Father
To give Him praise and glory.
The first leader of the Church
Worked for near half century;
He let his countrymen search
For the truth of Almighty.
He was one God's instrument
In showing the righteous path;
Preaching the Lord's commandment,
For men to keep from His wrath.
One hundred thirty-four years
Have passed since his happy birth;
We love him in joyful tears,
We remember him in mirth.
