1 Tu, Senhor, estás conosco
E Teu povo abençoarás;
Em Teu nome reunidos,
Tu em nosso meio estás.

Refrain:
Vem, oh, vem abençoar-nos!
Vem nos revivificar!
Dá-nos uma rica bênção:
Vem nossa alma refrescar.

2 Tu, Senhor, nos prometeste
A nós outros conceder
Tudo o que com fé pedirmos,
Tudo o que nos é mister.

3 Nós pedimos em Teu Nome
Direção e Teu saber;
Mais da Tua grande graça
Desejamos receber.

4 Abençoa a Tua Obra:
Esta é nossa petição.
Pelos Teus, por Tua Igreja,
Ouve nossa intercessão.

5 Pelos fracos e os aflitos
Te rogamos, nosso Deus,
Por irmãos desanimados,
Pelos redimidos Teus.

Adapter: William Anglin

William Anglin (1882–1965) was born in Stockton-on-Tees, England, where he was successful as a steel mill manager until he felt God's call to missionary work. He arrived in Brazil in 1926 and worked primarily in the Zona da Mata region (MG, RJ, and ES), dedicating himself to evangelization, teaching children to read and write, and supporting other missionaries. He distinguished himself as a hymnologist, contributing 63 compositions to the hymnal Hinos e Cânticos and authoring the adaptation of A. E. Knight's History of Christianity. After health problems, he returned to England in 1960, declaring with emotion: "Brazil is my homeland." He died on September 7, 1965, leaving behind an important missionary and musical legacy.
