285. Cerca de ti, Señor

1 Cerca de ti, Señor, quiero estar.
Tu grande y tierno amor quiero gozar.
Llena mi pobre ser, limpia mi corazón;
hazme tu rostro ver en la aflicción.

2 Pasos inciertos doy, el sol se va;
mas si contigo estoy no temo ya.
Himnos de gratitud alegre cantaré,
y fiel a ti, Señor, siempre seré.

3 Día feliz veré creyendo en ti,
en que yo habitaré cerca de ti.
Mi voz alabará tu santo nombre allí,
y mi alma gozará cerca de ti.
