Representative Text

1 Nuestra fortaleza, nuestra protección,
nuestra fiel socorro, nuestro paladión,
Nuestro gran refugio, nuestra salvación
es el Dios que adora nuestro corazón.

Coro:
Nuestra fortaleza, nuestra protección.

Nunca todas ellas se han de comparar
con la que pudimos en el cielo hallar. [Coro]
