2
You came to save me, giving up your life,
Your blood redeemed me, what sacrifice!
Now I will serve you, you are my Lord;
For I want to stand in mansions above,
Where you sit on your throne.
3
There in the heavens, where you are ruling,
I'll have the blessing to see your face;
Your precious visage, flowing with love,
I will be with you, in eternal bliss,
For the ages, Amen.

JESUS ESCUCHA
Ps 61 1 INIEBCFSSIPN / es 1391 SLJPPUC&IPN
Oh, Jesus, hearken to my plea,
My life depends only on you;
Oh, hear my voice, make haste to me,
Lend me the power of your might!
CHORUS
Protect my thoughts, and all my acts,
And consecrate the words I speak;
Set my heart free, and lead my way,
Do not allow my faith to stray.
2
When day breaks free, when dawn has come,
To you I'll raise my voice in song,
And as an incense I will bring,
My every prayer to your throne.
3
When astral light glistens the sky,
I will be searching for your peace;
My love accept, I beg, my Lord,
It is my evening sacrifice.

Oh, my good Lord, though it is hard,
