Onipotente Rei

Representative Text

1. Onipotente Rei,
Aqui, presente sê
No Teu poder.
Em Teu excelso amor,
Inspira-nos louvor.
Queremos-Te, Senhor,

2. Vem Tu, Consolador,
Sê testificador
Da redenção.
No templo vem entrar,
A obra completar.
Das manchas vem limpar
O coração.

3. Ó, grande e trino Deus,
Sim, Te adoramos nós,
E só a Ti!
Santificar-nos-ás,
Ao Céu nos levarás;
A glória nos darás
Contigo aí.
