| | ¡Qué alegría cuando me dijeron! | Jerusalén está fundada | Qué alegría cuando me dijeron | | | Spanish | | ¡Qué alegría cuando me dijeron: ... | | Psalm 121I notice the hymn text references Jerusalem and joy ("¡Que alegría cuando me dijeron" - "What joy when they told me"), which actually connects to Psalm 122, not Psalm 121. Psalm 122 begins "I rejoiced with those who said to me, 'Let us go to the house of the LORD'" and speaks of Jerusalem.
However, since you've asked me to explain the connection to Psalm 121 specifically, I should note that Psalm 121 is about God as keeper and protector ("I lift up my eyes to the mountains—where does my help come from?").
Given the apparent mismatch, here's my response:
This hymn appears to reference Psalm 122's joy about Jerusalem rather than Psalm 121's theme of divine protection. | | | Cánticos Litúrgicos | | [Jerusalén está fundada] | | | | | | | 11 | 0 | 1818581 | 1 |
