1. Ó, vinde, vós, aflitos, já,
Ao trono do Senhor;
Abrigo, Cristo vos dará,
Refúgio em Seu amor.

Estribilho:
Cristo salva, Cristo salva,
Salva o pecador.
Cristo salva, Cristo salva,
Salva o pecador.

2. Seu sangue derramou por nós,
E, assim, nos veio abrir
Estrada reta, que conduz
Ao Céu, o bom porvir. [Estribilho]

3. Jesus é vida, paz e luz,
Do mundo, o Redentor;
É tudo, enfim, o bom Jesus,
Do pobre pecador. [Estribilho]
