Representative Text

1 Eis no amor de Cristo, para ti lugar,
Alma dolorida! Oh! Vem descansar!
Por que andar tão triste, sempre em aflição,
Quando a ti Ele abre Seu bom coração?

2 No Seu lar celeste há lugar pra ti,
Alma peregrina, Deus te espera ali!
Ao Seu lado, Cristo perto quer nos ter,
Onde a Sua glória nós iremos ver.
