por salvar al más vil pecador.

¡Oh! yo siempre amaré a esa cruz de Jesus,
en sus triunfos mi gloria será;

para mí tiene suma atracción,
porque en ella llevó el Cordero de Dios
de mi pecado y mi condenación. [Estribillo]

hermosura contemplo en visión,
pues en ella de Cordero inmolado murió,

y algún día feliz con los santos en luz
para siempre su gloria tendré. [Estribillo]
