There were two hymn texts in the Mexican Mission hymnals that I wasn’t really sure what to do with: “El Tiempo Ha Llegado” and “Te glorificamos, oh Dios.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

El Tiempo Ha Llegado<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Written by Ram\u00f3n Garc\u00edas, “El tiempo ha llegado” was published in two editions of the Mexican Mission hymnal, but neither version gave an indication of tune to which it should be sung. Making matters more complicated, the first half of the verses have a regular meter (7.6.7.6.8.7) while the second half are all over the place for syllable lengths. I suspect Garc\u00edas had a tune in mind while writing, but didn’t have that included in the hymnal. Because of these complications, I did not produce a poetic translation or music to accompany this hymn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Te glorificamos, oh Dios<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Marion Beck Naegle (1881\u20131974) translated twelve hymns into Spanish for the Latter-day Saint hymnbooks in Mexico, including “The Spirit of God,” “Praise to the Man,” and “How Great the Wisdom and the Love.” Marion also wrote the lyrics to “Te glorificamos, oh Dios,” which was included in the 1907 and 1912 hymnals. Born in Toquerville, Utah, Marion had moved to a colony in Oaxaca, in Sonora, Mexico by 1903, which was likely his base of operations for the translation and writing of hymns in Spanish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The text of “Te glorificamos, oh Dios” indicates that it was intended to be sung to Songs of Zion<\/em>, No. 172, which was “The Red, White, and Blue” or “Columbia” (the tune used for “Up Awake Ye Defenders of Zion” in the 1985 English hymnal). The lyrics are not, however, a natural fit for that tune in their meter. Due to the irregular meter and lack of correlation to the given tune, I opted to skip out on doing a poetic translation or music for this one as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
