Representative Text

1 Guíame, ¡oh Salvador!
Por la vía de salud;
A tu lado no hay temor;
Solo hay gozo, paz, quietud.

Refrain: ¡Cristo! ¡Cristo!
No me dejes, ¡oh Señor!
Siendo tú mi guía fiel,
Seré más que vencedor.

2 No me dejes ¡oh Señor!,
Mientras en el mundo este;
Y haz que arribe sin temor
Do feliz por fin seré. [Refrain]

3 Tu, de mi alma salvación,
En la ruda tempestad,
Al venir la tentación
Dame ayuda por piedad. [Refrain]
