Tú conoces, Señor

Language: Spanish (Español) after the English

Tú conoces, Señor, los secretos de nuestro corazón: 
que tu amor misericordioso no dé la espalda
a nuestras plegarias, 
y perdónanos, santísimo Señor,
Dios Todopoderoso, 
Sagrado y Misericordioso Salvador, 
no nos abandones en nuestra última 
hora al sufrimiento del dolor de la muerte.
Amen.
