Alto Preço Lyrics Translation in English

Quando ele foi levado àquela cruz, nada falou

When he was taken to that cross, he spoke nothing

Mesmo sendo inocente, mais pilatos o crucificou

Even being innocent, Pilate crucified him

E a multidão gritava em alta voz: Soltem barrabás

And the crowd shouted loudly: Release Barabbas

E o sangue que escondeu em sua face ao mundo trouxe a paz

And the blood he concealed on his face brought peace to the world

Ele levou sobre si as coisas dores

He bore upon himself the painful sorrows

O castigo que nos traz a paz estava sobre ele

The punishment that brings us peace was upon him

E pelas suas pisaduras fomos sarados

And by his wounds, we were healed

E no sangue inocente de Jesus fomos perdoados

And in the innocent blood of Jesus, we were forgiven

De repente Jesus Cristo expirou lá no calvário

Suddenly Jesus Christ breathed his last on Calvary

Com certeza muita gente ali chorou, foi triste o cenário

Surely many people wept there, the scene was sad

Era triste contemplar aquela cena naquela hora

It was sad to contemplate that scene at that moment

Mas pra ele o que estava acontecendo era vitória

But for him, what was happening was victory

Ele levou sobre si as nossas dores

He bore upon himself our pains

O castigo que nos traz a paz estava sobre ele

The punishment that brings us peace was upon him

E pelas suas pisaduras fomos sarados

And by his wounds, we were healed

E no sangue inocente de Jesus fomos perdoados

And in the innocent blood of Jesus, we were forgiven

Com três dias ele então ressuscitou para te salvar

With three days, he then resurrected to save you

Antes que você nasceste, de amor morrendo em seu lugar

Before you were born, dying in your place with love

Hoje ele está aqui em nosso meio pode acreditar

Today he is here in our midst, you can believe

Muito breve vai levar a sua igreja pra no céu morar

Very soon, he will take his church to dwell in heaven

Ele levou sobre si as nossas dores

He bore upon himself our pains

O castigo que nos traz a paz estava sobre ele

The punishment that brings us peace was upon him

E pelas suas pisaduras fomos sarados

And by his wounds, we were healed

E no sangue inocente de Jesus somos perdoados

And in the innocent blood of Jesus, we are forgiven

E no sangue inocente de Jesus fomos perdoados!

And in the innocent blood of Jesus, we were forgiven!
