D7/9
Demonstrando a minha fé
Vou subir a Penha a pé
G7 D7/9
Pra fazer minha oração
G7
Vou pedir à padroeira
D7/9
Numa prece verdadeira
A7 D7/9
Que proteja o meu baião
G7
Penha! Penha!
A7 D7/9
Eu vim aqui me ajoelhar
G7
Venha, venha,
D7/9 A7 D7/9
Trazer paz para o meu lar.
Nossa Senhora da Penha
Minha voz talvez não tenha
G7 D7/9
O poder de te exaltar
G7
Mas dê bênção padroeira
D7/9
Pressa gente brasileira
A7 D7/9
