As Palavras de Jesus

I long to hear the voice of my good Savior
His sayings, a feast they are, a feast of love
Like the celestial manna, they also give me strength
They always bring me instruction from the Master of Bethlehem

The words of the Lord
Are words of strength
They teach me, guide me, bring me light
The words of Jesus

Only the words of Jesus give me courage
They drive away from my heart the evils and pain
The meekness of the Savior makes me understand
They bring the divine joy of Heaven to my being

The words of the Lord
Are words of strength
They teach me, guide me, bring me light
The words of Jesus

At all times, my Jesus will speak words to me
In trials, they are my good, his voice will comfort me
My soul finds peace in them, who can disturb me?
Jesus gives me a real feast, invites me to dine

The words of the Lord
Are words of strength
They teach me, guide me, bring me light
The words of Jesus

There is no place, nor will there be, in the world of horror
Where the lost find peace, except in the Lord
For the words he tells us are a source of power
For every poor sinner who, humbled, believes

The words of the Lord
Are words of strength
They teach me, guide me, bring me light
The words of Jesus
