Representative Text

1 Gozo del mundo es el Señor
que viene a reinar;
con gratitud y con amor:

con toda bendición;
nos da perdón, consuelo, luz,
y paz al corazón,
y paz al corazón,

3 Que el mundo acepte a su Rey
con gratitud y honor;
que cumpla fiel y con fervor
la ley de su Señor,

4 Que el gozo cunda en derredor
por tan preciado don que Dios
nos da con gran amor:
el don de nuestro Dios,
el don de nuestro Dios,
el don, el don de nuestro Dios.
