Donde hay tinieblas, lleve yo tu luz,
donde hay tristeza, gozo en ti.

3 Maestro, yo quisiera aprender
a no ser consolado sino consolar,
Ser comprendido sino comprender,
ser amado, tanto como amar.

4 Hazme un instrumento de tu paz;
pues tu perdón disfruto al perdonar;
Tu bendición recibo yo al dar,
y vivo al morir en ti.
