1. Tu anseias hoje mesmo a salvação?
Tens desejo de banir a escuridão?
Abre, então, de par em par, teu coração!
Deixa a luz do Céu entrar!

Estribilho:
Deixa a luz do Céu entrar!
Deixa a luz do Céu entrar!
Abre bem a porta do teu coração!
Deixa a luz do Céu entrar!

2. Cristo, a Luz do Céu, em ti quer habitar,
Para as trevas do pecado dissipar,
Teu caminho e coração iluminar!
Deixa a luz do Céu entrar! [Estribilho]

3. Que alegria, andar no brilho dessa luz!
Vida eterna e paz no coração produz!
Ó, aceita, agora, o Salvador Jesus!
Deixa a luz do Céu entrar! [Estribilho]
