1 ¡Oh! cantádmelas otra vez,
bellas palabras de vida;
hallo en ellas mi gozo y luz,
bellas palabras de vida.
Sí, de luz y vida
son sostén y guía;

Estribillo:
¡Qué bellas son, qué bellas son!
Bellas palabras de vida;
¡Qué bellas son, qué bellas son!
Bellas palabras de vida.

2 Jesucristo a todos da
bellas palabras de vida;
oye su grata invitación,
bellas palabras de vida.
Bondadoso te salva,
y al cielo te llama. [Estribillo]

3 Grato el cántico sonará,
bellas palabras de vida;
tus pecados perdonará,
bellas palabras de vida.
Sí, de luz y vida,
son sostén y vida. [Estribillo]
