Hino Diocesano by João Baptista Lehmann — Lyrics
1. Nossa terra batizada,
Terra foi de Santa Cruz.
Sendo assim predestinada, para o culto de Jesus.
Brasileiros bons e puros, para os céus erguei as mãos.
Mais e mais, em Deus seguros, tende Fé, sede cristãos!
2. No horizonte brasileiro, quando reina escuridão.
Há de estrelas um cruzeiro, celebrando a redenção.

The hymn emphasizes the sublime presence of God in Brazil, making it a moral imperative to love Him. This composition is rooted in a tradition of religious music intended to inspire devotion and national pride.
