Representative Text

1 Aramos nuestros campos,
y luego el sembrador
en ellos la simiente
esparce con amor.
Mas es de Dios la mano
que ha hace germinar,
calor y lluvia dando
a todos por igual.

2 El Hacedor Supremo
de cuanto existe es Él.
Su aroma da a las flores
y a las abejas miel.
Las aves alimenta,
de peces puebla el mar,
y da a las gentes todas
el cotidiano pan.

3 Mil gracias, Dios, te damos
por cuanto bien nos das:
la flores y los frutos,
salud, la vida y pan.
No hay con qué paguemos
lo que nos da tu amor,
más que nuestro sincero
y humilde corazón.
