SÓ POR JESUS

Representative Text

1 Cristo veio dos altos céus,
Veio do mal salvar-nos;
Pela graça de nosso Deus,
Fez nossa redenção.
Por Jesus, somente, foi remido o crente.

Refrain:
Só por Jesus, só por Jesus
É que nós somos salvos. (bis)

2 Oh, que graça nos revelou
Quando Ele veio ao mundo!
Compaixão sem igual mostrou
A todo pecador.
Sim, por Sua morte, temos vera sorte.

3 Nem as lágrimas, nem a dor,
Podem a paz ganhar-nos,
Nossas obras não têm valor
Para o perdão comprar.
Sem pagarmos nada, vida nos é dada.

4 Confiados em Cristo, já
Pleno perdão nós temos;
Filhos somos de Deus-Jeová,
Filhos por adoção!
Salvos nEle estamos; glória a Deus rendamos!
