Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Decididamente, resolutamente ele subiu

Decisively, resolutely, he ascended

Para jerusalém

To Jerusalem

Sabia que a dor o esperava

He knew that pain awaited him

Que a angústia o aguardava

That anguish awaited him

Em jerusalém

In Jerusalem

Como um cordeiro mudo, ele foi levado ao matadouro

Like a silent lamb, he was led to the slaughter

E foi por amor, foi puro amor

And it was for love, it was pure love

Cada passo que ele dava

Every step he took

Mais da morte se aproximava

He drew nearer to death

E ele estava só

And he was alone

Ele estava só porque não existia alguém que

He was alone because there was no one who

Poderia dividir a dor

Could share the pain

É impossível de se imaginar

It is impossible to imagine

O quanto nossa salvador sofreu

How much our Savior suffered

E foi por amor, foi puro amor

And it was for love, it was pure love


Os cravos ele escolheu

He chose the nails

A minha culpa ele quis levar

He wanted to take my guilt

Pagou o preço que era meu

He paid the price that was mine

Foi por amor, foi só por amor

It was for love, it was only for love

Que ele se deu

That he gave himself


Jamais vai existir amor

There will never be a love

Maior que o meu senhor

Greater than my Lord's

Mostrou na cruz

He showed on the cross
