Me salvó, me perdonó

Representative Text

1 Vagaba por el mundo sin fe, sin esperanza,
no sabiendo que había un Salvador,
Que, por librar mi alma de muerte y pecado,
en el Calvario murió el Buen Pastor.

Coro:
Me salvó, me perdonó, mi Jesucristo me redimió.
Me salvó, me perdonó, mi Jesucristo me redimió.
[Original: Soy feliz, yo soy feliz, desde que Cristo me redimió.
Soy feliz, yo soy feliz, desde que Cristo me redimió.]

2 Cuando desalentado estoy en esta vida,
con el alma imploro al Salvador,
Pidiéndole me mande del cielo su consuelo
para poder aguantar el cruel dolor. [Coro]

3 Eres, Jesús, el lirio que perfumó mi vida;
me libraste de toda iniquidad;
Pusiste en mi boca un canto de alabanza;
es mi anhelo cumplir tu voluntad. [Coro]

4 Cerca de ti, oh Cristo, andar yo siempre quiero;
me ampara tu sacrosanto amor;
Sin ti la vida es triste, muy llena de amarguras,
pero tú eres mi gran consolador. [Coro]

Author: Anonymous

In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries. Go to person page >
