Nome Precioso

Representative Text

1 Leva tu contigo o Nome
De Jesus, o Salvador;
Este Nome dá conforto
Sempre, seja onde for.

Refrain:
Nome bom! Doce a fé!
Esperança do porvir! (bis)

2 Leva sempre o santo Nome
Para bem te defender;
Ele é arma ao teu alcance
Quando o mal te aparecer.

3 Oh, que Nome precioso!
Gozo traz ao coração;
Sendo por Jesus aceito,
Tu já tens o Seu perdão.

4 Nome santo e adorável
Tem Jesus, o Amado teu;
"Rei dos reis, Senhor eterno",
Tu o aclamarás no céu!
