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!
