Importa Renascer

Representative Text

1. Um rico, de noite, chegou a Jesus
A fim de saber o caminho da luz;
O Mestre, bem claro, lhe fez entender:
Importa renascer!

[Estribilho:] Importa renascer! Importa renascer!
Com voz infalível o disse Jesus:
“Importa renascer!”

2. Vós, filhos do mundo, escutai ao Senhor
Que sempre vos chama com mui terno amor;
Ouvi que o Senhor nunca cessa em dizer:
Importa renascer! [Estribilho]

3. Ó, vós, que no santo descanso de Deus,
Quereis ter entrada e viver com os Seus,
Deveis à Palavra de Cristo atender:
Importa renascer! [Estribilho]
