217. Mi Salvador en su bondad
1.
Mi Salvador en su bondad
Al mundo malo descendió,
Y de hondo abismo de maldad
Él mi alma levantó.
Estribillo:
Seguridad me dio Jesús
Cuando su mano me tendió;
Estando en sombra, a plena luz,
En su bondad me levantó.
2.
Tortura cruel sufrió Jesús
Cuando en la cruz por mí murió,
Tan solo así me dio salud
Y así me levantó.
Seguridad me dio Jesús, etc.
3.
Su voz constante resistí
Aunque Él, amante, me llamó;
Mas su palabra recibí,
Y fiel me levantó.
Seguridad me dio Jesús, etc.
4.
Que soy feliz, yo bien lo sé
Con esta vida que Él me dio;
Mas no comprendo aún por qué
Jesús me levantó.
Seguridad me dio Jesús, etc.
1.
My Savior –in His goodness–
Came down into this wicked world,
And He raised my soul
From a deep abyss of wickedness.
Estribillo:
Jesus gave me assurance,
When He stretched out His hand to me;
When I was in the shadow, He –in His goodness–
Raised me up into full light.
2.
Jesus suffered cruel torture
When dying on the cross for me.
Only thus He gave me salvation
And thus He raised me up.
Jesus gave me assurance, etc.
3.
I resisted His insistent voice,
Even though He called me lovingly;
But I received His word,
And He raised me up faithfully.
Jesus gave me assurance, etc.
4.
I know well that I am happy,
With the life He gave me;
But I still do not understand
Why Jesus raised me up.
Jesus gave me assurance, etc.
