144. Yo tengo que guardar

1 Yo tengo que guardar
Mi alma de todo mal
Y prepararla para entrar
Al reino celestial.

2 Para este gran deber,
Mi Dios, poder llenar,
Haz que, a servirte, hoy mi ser
Te quiera consagrar.

3 Yo quiero tu hijo ser
De todo corazón,
Y para siempre poseer
Tu eterna bendición.

4 Ayúdame a velar,
Confírmame en la fe,
Que si en Ti puedo siempre fiar
Por siempre viviré.

Amén.
