Representative Text

1 Ven, alma que lloras,
Ven al Salvador;
En tus tristes horas
Dile tu dolor.
Ven, dile tu duelo;
Ven tal como estás;
Habla sin recelo
Y no llores más.

2 Toda tu amargura
Dile a tu Señor,
Tu pena y tristura,
Engaños y error;
En su tierno seno
Descanso hallarás;
Ven, porque Él es bueno,
Y no llores más.

3 Ven y di al cansado
Que acepte la cruz;
Guía al angustiado
Hacia el buen Jesús;
La bendita nueva
De celeste paz
A los tristes lleva,
Y no loores más.
