1 Amigo sem igual! Amigo sem igual!
O meu Jesus, em meu lugar,
Morreu pra me salvar.
Amigo sem igual! Amigo sem igual!
Seu grande amor não mudará
E nunca falhará.

2 Amigo sem igual! Amigo sem igual!
Perto Ele está, pronto a salvar
Quem nEle confiar.
Amigo sem igual! Amigo sem igual!
Convida com imenso amor
A todo pecador.

In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries. Go to person page >
