1 Pastoréanos, Jesús amante,
Cuida, ¡Oh Señor!, tu grey;
Tu sustento placentero dale
Al redil, y justa ley,
Alta ciencia, Providencia,
Tuyas para nuestro bien;
Bendecido, Rey ungido,
A santificarnos ven.
2 Tu misión divina es a tus hijos
Dar salud y santidad;
A pesar de ser tan pecadores,
No nos has de desechar,
Comunicas Dotes ricas
Al que implora tu perdón;
Salvadora Luz, que mora
En el nuevo corazón.
