229. Hoy en gloria celestial

1 Hoy en gloria celestial,
reina vivo e inmortal
Cristo que en la cruz sufrió,
con poder se levantó.
Su gloriosa majestad,
cante, pues, la Cristiandad.

2 Muerte y tumba ya venció
el que al polvo se humilló;
Su poder y gran virtud
cautivó la esclavitud.
Su gloriosa majestad,
cante, pues, la Cristiandad.

3 A los cielos ascendió;
por su amor nos redimió;
Cristo el victorioso Rey
intercede por su grey.
Su gloriosa majestad,
cante, pues, la Cristiandad.
