476. Amigos de Cristo (Friends of the Lord)

Refrain:
Amigos de Cristo; we're friends of the Lord;
amigos de Cristo; we're friends of the Lord.
For we've been forgiven, and we've been restored;
amigos de Cristo; we're friends of the Lord.

1 Friends of the covenant renewed each morn;
baptized and loving it, we've been reborn.
Gift of the dove is ours forevermore.
Amigos de Cristo; we're friends of the Lord. [Refrain]

2 Born of a family, the young and old,
we'll be on hand to see new life unfold.
We understand the need to be made whole.
Amigos de Cristo; we're friends of the Lord. [Refrain]
