211. ¡Oh Padre eterno!

1 ¡Oh Padre eterno!
¡Oh Padre amado!
Perdón te pido
Por mis pecados.

2 Todos mis días
He malgastado,
Mas hoy mis ruegos
A Ti levanto.

3 Sé que merezco
Tu desagrado,
Porque en tus sendas
Ni un paso he dado.

4 Mas ¡oh Dios mío!,
Ve que soy malo;
Dame tu gracia,
Dame tu amparo.

5 ¡Oh! no permitas,
Dios soberano,
Que en adelante
More en pecado.

6 Hazme en tu gracia
Odiar lo malo,
Y en tu camino
Guía mis pasos.

Amén.
