Noite De Paz

Representative Text

1. Tudo é paz! Tudo é amor!
Dormem todos em redor!
Em Belém, Jesus nasceu,
Rei da paz, da Terra e Céu;
Nosso Salvador
É Jesus, Senhor.

2. “Glória a Deus! Glória a Deus!”
Cantam anjos lá nos Céus;
Boas novas de perdão,
Graça excelsa, salvação;
Prova desse amor,
Dá o Redentor.

3. Rei da paz, Rei do amor,
Deste mundo Criador;
Vinde todos Lhe pedir
Que vos venha conduzir;
Deste mundo, a luz
É o Senhor Jesus.
