Él consuela mi tristeza, me quita todo afán; ¡Grandes cosas Cristo ha hecho para mí! 2 Jesús jamás me falta; jamás me dejará; es mi fuerte y poderoso Protector. Del mundo yo me aparto y de la vanidad para consagrar mi vida a mi Señor. Si el mundo me persigue, si sufro tentación, confiado en Cristo puedo resistir. La victoria me es segura, y elevo mi canción; ¡Grandes cosas Cristo ha hecho para mí! 3 Yo sé que Jesucristo muy pronto volverá, y entretanto me prepara un lugar En casa de su Padre, mansión de luz y paz, do el creyente fiel con él ha de morar. Llegando a la gloria, con él yo estaré; contemplaré su rostro siempre allí. Con los santos redimidos gozoso cantaré: ¡Grandes cosas Cristo ha hecho para mí!
