Minha Esperança

Representative Text

1. Em nada ponho a minha fé,
Sinão na graça de Jesús;
No sacrifício remidor,
No sangue do bom Redentor.

[Côro:]

2. Si Lhe não posso a face ver,
Na Sua graça vou vivir;
Em cada transe a suportar,

3. Seu juramento é mui leal,
Abrigame no temporal;
Ao vir cercarme a tentação,
É Cristo a minha salvação. [Côro]
