Desde A Aurora

Representative Text

1 Desde a aurora à noite estrelada!
Jorra do rio a água e ventos de amor!
Os planetas cantam Tuas maravilhas,
Foi, É e sempre será o Salvador!

2 A vida e a morte a Ti refletem!
Louvor e oraçăo pela Tua permissăo;
Tudo o que existe foi por Ti criado
E a nós deu Sua eterna Salvaçăo!

3 Andamos no escuro, guie-nos oh! Jesus,
Em toda e qualquer língua te damos louvor,
Cegamente e bem feliz seguimos,
Foi, É e sempre será o Criador!

4 Estar separados! Nem pela morte,
Para todas as almas errantes, és Pastor!
Com o Celestial Lar estamos a sonhar,
Fui, sou e sempre serei sonhador!
