Text:¿Qué quiero, mi Jesús? . . . Quiero quererte
Author:Calderón de la Barca

191. ¿Qué quiero, mi Jesús? . . . Quiero quererte

¿Qué quiero, mi Jesús? . . . Quiero quererte,
quiero cuanto hay en mí, del todo darte
sin tener más placer que el agradarte,
sin tener más temor que el ofenderte.

Quiero olvidarlo todo y conocerte,
quiero dejarlo todo por buscarte,
quiero perderlo todo por hallarte,
quiero ignorarlo todo por saberte.

Quiero, amable Jesús, abismarme
en ese dulce hueco de tu herida,
y en tus divinas llamas abrasarme.

Quiero, por fin, en Ti transfigurarme,
morir a mí, para vivir tu vida,
perderme en Ti, Jesús, y no encontrarme.
