16. Cerca De Ti Señor

1 Cerca de ti, Señor,
Quiero morar;
Tu grande y tierno amor,
Quiero gozar.
Llena mi pobre ser,
Limpia mi corazón,
Hazme tu rostro ver,
En comunión.

2 Pasos inciertos doy,
El sol se va;
Más si contigo estoy
No temo ya,
Himnos de gratitud,
Ferviente cantaré,
Y fiel a ti, Jesús,
Siempre seré.

3 Día feliz veré,
Creyendo en ti,
En que yo habitaré,
Cerca de ti,
Mi voz alabará,
Tu dulce nombre allí
Y mi alma gozará,
Cerca de ti.
