Representative Text

1 ¡Cuán dulce es cofiar en Cristo
Y entregarse todo a él,
Esperar en sus promesas,
y en sus sendas serle fiel!

Coro:

Jesucristo, Jesucristo,
siempre confiaré en ti.

2 Dulce sí es confiar en Cristo
Y cumplir su voluntad,

que es la luz y la verdad. [Coro]

3 Siempre en ti confiar yo quiero,
mi precioso Salvador;
En la vida en la muerte
protección me dé tu amor. [Coro]
