Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Pela via dolorosa caminhando

Through the dolorous path walking

Vi um homem carregando

I saw a man carrying

Uma cruz nos ombros seu

A cross on his shoulders

Ele tinha em seu corpo chicotadas

He had lashes on his body

Prosseguiu sem dizer nada

He continued without saying anything

Nem se quer se defendeu

Not even defending himself

Vi também que tinha sangue

I also saw that there was blood

No caminho da coroa de espinhos

On the path to the crown of thorns

Que em sua fronte colocaram

That they placed on his forehead

Seu semblante ofegante e cansado

His countenance panting and tired

O seu rosto machucado

His face bruised

Que os soldados o espancam

That the soldiers beat


Ele estava caminhando pro Calvário

He was walking to Calvary

Era triste o cenário

The scene was sad

Mesmo assim não recuou

Yet he did not retreat

No madeiro perfuraram suas mãos

On the wood, they pierced his hands

E chegou a hora da consumação

And the time of consummation arrived

E ali os meus pecados perdoou

And there he forgave my sins


Jesus eu sei que devo a minha vida

Jesus, I know that I owe my life

Pra aquele sacrifício de amor

To that sacrifice of love

Tu me mostraste a porta de saída

You showed me the way out

Do fundo do abismo me tirou

You pulled me out from the abyss

Eu hoje tenho minhas vestes brancas

Today, I have my white garments

E o meu nome está escrito lá no céu

And my name is written in the sky

Por que uma rude cruz, tu não negaste

Because a rough cross, you did not deny

Mesmo antes que eu nascesse

Even before I was born

Tu me amastes

You loved me

Pra salvar a minha alma tu fostes fiel

To save my soul, you were faithful
