1 Mi espíritu, alma y cuerpo,
mi ser, mi vida entera,
cual viva, santa ofrenda
entrego a ti, mi Dios.

Estribillo:
Mi todo a Dios consagro
en Cristo, el vivo altar.
¡Descienda el fuego santo,
su sello celestial!

2 Soy tuyo, Jesucristo,
comprado con tu sangre;
contigo haz Tú que ande
en plena comunión. [Estribillo]

3 Espíritu divino,
del Padre la promesa;
sedienta, mi alma anhela
de ti la santa unción [Estribillo]
