En Pecados y Temor

Representative Text

1 En pecados y temor el Salvador me vio,
Aunque indigno pecador, su mano me tendió;
En Calvario al morir mi vida rescato,
En la Cruz salud por mí el consumo.

Refrain:
Ven al Señor ¡Oh, pecador!
El es tu amigo fiel, ven pecador;
Ven al Señor Dios es amor,
Escucha su tierna voz, ven, pecador.

2 De la tumba ya surgió, mi Redentor Jesús,
Y la muerte ya venció, dándome plena luz;
Te convida a gozar de esta bendición,
Que poseo yo también, la salvación. [Refrain]

3 A los cielos ascendió, Cristo mi Salvador,
A la diestra de Jehová esta el Mediador,
Intercede en tu favor, ven pronto, pecador.
No desprecies esta voz es del Señor. [Refrain]
