A Deus Supremo

Representative Text

1 A Deus, supremo no poder,

A voz do nosso coração,
Louvores dando, que no ar
Os altos façam ecoar.

E pelas eras retinir
A santa história divinal
Da glória e perfeição moral
Que, em graça, soube aos maus valer
E os pródigos a Si trazer,
Sem a justiça desonrar,
Nem santidade macular!
