Jesus E As Crianças

Representative Text

1 Cristo sente amor por mim!
Com certeza eu creio assim.
Por amor de mim morreu:
Vivo está pra mim no céu.

Refrain:
Cristo nos ama! Cristo nos chama!
Cristo proclama tão grande salvação!

2 Cristo tem por mim amor
E Se fez meu Salvador;
Hoje ainda tem prazer
Em crianças receber.

3 Por gozar Seu rico amor
Hei de amar meu Salvador;
E desejo aqui mostrar
Seu amor tão exemplar.

4 Meu Senhor Jesus está
Ao meu lado e levará,
Afinal, ao céu de luz,
Os que resgatou na cruz.
