7. De Heladas Cordilleras

1 De heladas cordilleras,
De playas de coral,
De etiópicas riberas,
Del mar meridional,
Nos llaman afligidas,
A darles libertad,
Naciones sumergidas,
En densa oscuridad.

2 Nosotros, alumbrados,
De celestial saber,
¿A tantos desgraciados,
Veremos perecer?
A las naciones demos
De Dios la salvación;
El nombre proclamemos,
Que obró la redención.

3 Llevada por los vientos,
La historia de la cruz,
Despierte sentimientos,
De amor hacia Jesús:
Prepare corazones,
Enseñe su verdad
En todas las naciones,
Según su voluntad. Amén.
