Jubilee Song

"Jubilee Song" is a Christian song from the Philippines written by Fr. Carlo Magno Marcelo in 1996 to commemorate the then-upcoming Great Jubilee event (Dakilang Jubileo) of the Catholic Church in the year 2000. The song is most popularly performed by Filipino singer Jamie Rivera with the band 92 AD in 2000.

"Jubilee Song" was written by Fr. Marcelo, a priest at the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Manila, after the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines commissioned him to compose a song for the Great Jubilee. By June 2000, it had been translated into various languages such as Korean, Japanese, Hindi, French, and Chamorro among others. The song was first released in 1997 performed by Cris Villonco and Jose Mari Chan for the three-year preparation of the Jubilee Year.

In December 1999, Rivera was planning to retire from the music industry the next year. However, a few days before Christmas, her brother Jun convinced her otherwise, suggesting that she record the "Jubilee Song" for the Great Jubilee event of 2000. Rivera recorded the song with the band 92 AD on the night of December 24, 1999, and it was later included by Jun in the Star Records album Iubilaeum A.D. 2000: In the Fullness of Time early next year. Upon its release, Rivera's recording became a hit in the Philippines, and Rivera had since decided to commit herself to promoting the event throughout the year.

Other artists who recorded the song include Donna Cruz (for the Viva Records album Servant of All), Cris Villonco (for the album A Girl Can Dream), and Dindin Llarena (for the Alpha Records album The Great Jubilee Album).
