Representative Text

1 Cantad, cantad, mortales,
Que Cristo ya nació;
Y por salvar las almas,
Humilde se endarnó;

Ya libres Él os hizo,
De ruina Él os sacó.

2 Cantad, cantad, mortales,
Que Cristo redimió.
De par en par las puertas
Del cielo Él os abrió.
La plenitud de gloria,
Cantad, que os legó;
Dad gracias al Mesías:
De ruina Él os sacó.
