1 Grande Tu és, ó Pai, em lealdade,
És sempre o mesmo, jamais mudarás;
És compassivo, infinito em bondade,
Como Tu és, assim sempre serás.

Refrão:
Santo e Supremo és, Deus da verdade,
Sobre Teus filhos está Teu favor;
Imensa é Tua fidelidade,
Glória e louvor a Ti, ó Criador.

2 Quanto é elevado, ó Deus, Teu pensamento,
Em Tuas obras há grande saber;
Reges a terra, os céus e o firmamento,
Tudo enaltece Teu grande poder [Refrão]

3 Só em Ti há perdão para o pecado,
Paz sempiterna dás ao coração;
Tua presença, ó Deus, nos tem guiado,
E guiará até a perfeição. [Refrão]
