There is an English hymn, "Shine Jesus Shine".

I need a recording of this in spanish. I would imagine it would be called "Brilla Jesus Brilla", but you can never be sure.
There is a Hymn, "Brilla Jesus". That is a different song.
Number 2 Daughter would like to take it to school on Monday, but I'm damned if I can find it.
Any help or pointers most gratefully received.
(it does need to be the same tune).

Just posted this onto an Argentinian friend's FB Wall. He is a Christian type so may well know.

Titled Brilla Jesus but sounds the same tune to me.

Thank you so much, I will go and listen to them now.

I won't guarantee they are in the right language ;-)

Never heard it in any language. A hymn as boring and solemn as most to my ear. But it isn't a particularly Christian or musical ear.
There are some terrific bits of religious and political music (dreary socialist dirges and workerist, bucolic stuff are pet hates of mine). But good tunes like Jerusalem, The Red Flag and the Horst Wessel Song are sadly rare. There was this Latin Paternoster that used to be roared out at my last, Jesuit, school. Everyone loved it but it was rationed. Those Jays don't miss a trick...

R.P.; Thanks for the thought. Useful to know you have such a contact since I do get similar requests from the girls from time to time.
Manatee; Thank you. The second link received royal approval. It’s not the right accent, but the language is correct, as is the tune. Apparently there are two songs with the title "Brilla Jesus" and you found the right one. I, somewhat obviously, did not. The little one is pleased, thank you again.
AC; I don’t know, I think this one is a little more upbeat than some of the torturous stuff they sing down here sometimes. Anyway, the little one now has it on her Karaoke machine and is bouncing around the lounge with a mic, so as long as she's happy.

Ah... karaoke.
Here's a 'disco' version of the same tune. Brilha, Jesus, Brilha - Jeanne Mascarenhas. I'm not competent on the language, Portugese I think, or accent but it's more intelligibly unintelligible to my cloth ears.

She'll probably love it but you might not!
