Buscou-me Com Ternura Lyrics Translation in English
Igreja Cristã MaranataPortuguese Lyrics
English Translation
Buscou -me com ternura
Sought me with tenderness
Jesus, o bom pastor
Jesus, the good shepherd
Achou-me na miséria
Found me in misery
Salvou-me com amor
Saved me with love
No céu cantaram de alegria
In heaven, angels sang with joy
Os anjos, sim, em harmonia
The angels, yes, in harmony
Oh! Que amor glorioso!
Oh! What glorious love!
Preço tão grandioso
Such a grand price
Que Jesus por mim na cruz pagou
That Jesus paid on the cross for me
Inaudita graça me mostrou!
Unheard-of grace showed me!
Ferido, abandona do
Wounded, abandoned
Jesus me socorreu
Jesus came to my aid
E segredou-me: Achei-te
And whispered to me: I found you
De agora em diante és meu
From now on, you are mine
Tão meiga voz jamais ouvi
Such a gentle voice I never heard
Prazer maior jamais senti
Greater pleasure I never felt
Jesus mostrou-me as chagas
Jesus showed me the wounds
Que em meu lugar sofreu
That He suffered in my place
Coroa, mas de espinhos
A crown, but made of thorns
A cruz que padeceu
The cross that He endured
Que poderia em mim achar
What could He find in me
Pra tais afrontas suportar?
To endure such insults?
Minha alma embevecida
My soul enraptured
Seu rosto a contemplar
Contemplating His face
Recorda as muitas bênçãos
Recalls the many blessings
Do seu amor sem par
Of His unparalleled love
Louvor e glória e adoração
Praise and glory and adoration
Tributai-lhe meu coração!
I offer to Him my heart!
Enquanto as horas passam
While the hours pass
Eu tenho gozo e paz
I have joy and peace
E aguardo meu bom mestre
And await my good teacher
Que tão feliz me faz!
Who makes me so happy!
Jesus, a mim virá buscar
Jesus will come to fetch me
E então pra sempre irei gozar!
And then I will enjoy forever!
