A servir a Cristo

Representative Text

1 A servir a Cristo sin temor iré,
donde él me dirija mi inseguro pie;
Sin su compañía todo es turbación,
mas si él me guía no tendré temor.

Coro:
Con Jesús por doquier, sin temor iré,
Si Jesús me guía nada temeré.

2 Con Jesús por guía dondequiera voy;
caminando en pos de él seguro estoy.
Y aunque padre y madre me hayan de faltar,
Jesucristo nunca me abandonará. [Coro]

3 Dondequiera con Jesús, en tierra y mar,
quiero ser su fiel testigo sin cesar,
Y si por desierto mi camino va,
un seguro albergue mi Jesús será. [Coro]
