O Dia do Senhor

Representative Text

1. No santo dia do Senhor,
É bom, com salmos de louvor,
Ao grande e eterno Deus honrar,
E Sua graça proclamar.

2. Eu, de manhã, me alegrarei
Co’as grandes bênçãos que provei;

3. Minh’alma, então, levantará
A sua voz e cantará,
Em doces hinos, o louvor
A meu benigno Salvador.
