The words
Halloween is All Hallows' Eve! (Hallows' Eve!)
Pumpkins grin on every porch, Abuela asks, what's Halloween?A hallow is a holy one, a saint! That's what Halloween means!
Halloween is All Hallows' Eve! (Hallows' Eve!)The night before the saints' big day! (The saints' big day!)We dress up like the saints and pray!Halloween is All Hallows' Eve! (Hallows' Eve!)
Brown robe and paper roses, Sofía is Thérèse! Hooray!Trick or treat, and for every house we whisper a prayer the old way!
Halloween is All Hallows' Eve! (Hallows' Eve!)The night before the saints' big day! (The saints' big day!)We dress up like the saints and pray!Halloween is All Hallows' Eve! (Hallows' Eve!)
Plastic bones rattle in the night, Sofía holds Papá's hand tight.He kneels: Jesus died, rose, and won, you belong to Him, little one!Nothing in the dark is stronger than Jesus!
Halloween is All Hallows' Eve! (Hallows' Eve!)The night before the saints' big day! (The saints' big day!)We dress up like the saints and pray!Halloween is All Hallows' Eve! (Hallows' Eve!)
Mamá, can I be a saint?That is what God made you for!Love God, love people, in small ways, and Jesus will help you!
The words in gold are the children’s part: the grown-up sings the line, the little ones shout the echo back.
