1 Resplendor da eterna glória!
Exultamos em louvar,
Em contar a santa história

Pra da morte nos livrar.
Celebramos-Te, levado
Entre as nuvens para os céus,
Celebramos-Te, sentado
Sobre o trono do alto Deus.
3 Celebramos-Te, elevado
Sobre tudo, e com poder
Do Supremo revestido,
Para a Igreja aqui manter.
Aguardamos Tua volta,
Quando os Teus hás de levar,
Pra com eles logo vires
Sobre os povos imperar.
