After 25 years, Jamie Rivera returns as the voice of the 2025 Philippine Jubilee hymn “Ningas ng Pag-asa” featuring the group 92AD.

The OPM icon, together with 92 AD, also served as the voice behind the “Jubilee Song (The Great Jubilee)” composed by Fr. Carlo Magno Marcelo which served as the theme song of the 2000 Jubilee celebration.

“I’m very grateful that I’m still given trust by the Catholic Church and yung faith nila is not fading, and I’m also blessed that 92AD is still there to help and wiling to join me,” she said.

When asked what “Ningas ng Pag-asa” means to her, the Inspirational Diva highlighted its message of hope.

“This is a message of hope. Flame of hope. Tayo yun, we have to tell the people that there is hope in mankind,” she said. “Yun ang responsibility natin as Christians, as Catholics, as followers of Christ to send this message because it is our mission.”

92AD also stressed the valuable message of the song. The group said, “The song is really a message of hope for everyone. Sa kabila ng lahat ng nangyayari sa mundo atin, hindi tayo dapat mawalan ng pag-asa. Magtiwala lang tayo sa Diyos. At yun ang mensahe na gusto nating iparating sa lahat.”

“Ningas ng Pag-asa” was adapted into Filipino by Jamie based on the official 2025 Jubilee theme “Pilgrims of Hope.” The Filipino version was released under ABS-CBN’s Inspire Music label.

Incidentally, both Jamie and 92AD are also collaborating anew for the entrance song for the Jubilee celebration in the country titled “Welcome! Mabuhay! O Pilgrims of Hope” also composed by Fr. Carlo Magno Marcelo.

The year of Jubilee is traditionally celebrated by the Catholic Church every 25 years.

The official music video of “Ningas ng Pag-asa” is now available on Star Music YouTube channel. For more details, follow Star Music on Facebook, X (Twitter), Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube.
