Representative Text

1 Sosténnos firmes, ¡oh Señor!,
En la Palabra de tu amor;
Refrena a los que en su maldad
Tu reino quieren derribar.

2 Demuestra tu poder, Jesús,
Pues rey de reyes eres Tú;
Haz que tu amada cristiandad
Te alabe con sinceridad.

3 ¡Oh Santo Espíritu de Dios!
Escucha de tu grey la voz:
Conserva en ella la unidad
Y guárdala en tu santa paz.

Amén.
