1 Mi amor y vida doy a Ti,
Jesús, quien en la cruz por mi
Vertiste sangre carmesí,
Mi Dios y Salvador.
Refrain:
Mi amor y vida doy a Ti,
Que fuiste a la cruz por mí,
Mi amor y vida doy a Ti,
Jesús, mi Salvador.
2 Que tú me salvas, esto sé;
He puesto en Ti mi débil fe;
Feliz entonces viviré,
Contigo mi Jesús. [Refrain]
3 Tu, que moriste en la cruz,
Concédeme, Señor Jesús,
Que siempre ande en tu luz,
En fiel consagración. [Refrain]
