Representative Text

1 Eis que pelos vales, montes e ribeiros,
Cristo, o Bom Pastor, busca Seus cordeiros!
Com bondade imensa, com paciente amor,
Quer seguros tê-los seu Salvador!

2 Do meu Bom Pastor sou Seu cordeirinho,
E seguro estou, inda que fraquinho!
Quem me arrancará da Sua santa mão,
Se entregar a Cristo meu coração?
