História da Cruz Lyrics Translation in English
Josué Barbosa Lira
Portuguese Lyrics
English Translation
Em Jerusalém, prenderam Jesus
In Jerusalem, they arrested Jesus
O meu salvador
My savior
Cuspiram na face, com a força do braço
They spat on his face, with the strength of their arm
O chicoteou
They whipped him
Como sofreu o meu redentor
How my redeemer suffered
Foi sobre o madeiro
It was on the timber
Que crucificaram o meu salvador
That they crucified my savior
Soldados romanos puseram a cruz
Roman soldiers placed the cross
E Jesus levantou
And Jesus was lifted
Por todas as ruas, o grande madeiro
Through all the streets, the great timber
Meu senhor arrastou
My Lord dragged
Como sofreu o meu redentor
How my redeemer suffered
Foi sobre o madeiro
It was on the timber
Que crucificaram o meu salvador
That they crucified my savior
E quando chegaram ali no calvário
And when they arrived at Calvary
Deitaram Jesus
They laid Jesus down
De braços abertos, no grande madeiro
With arms open wide, on the great timber
Em forma de cruz
In the form of a cross
Como sofreu o meu redentor
How my redeemer suffered
Foi sobre o madeiro
It was on the timber
Que crucificaram o meu salvador
That they crucified my savior
E sobre os seus pés e também suas mãos
And on his feet and also his hands
Grandes cravos pregaram
They drove in large nails
O meu salvador, entre dois ladrões
My savior, between two thieves
Ali levantaram
There they raised
Como sofreu o meu redentor
How my redeemer suffered
Foi sobre o madeiro
It was on the timber
Que crucificaram o meu salvador
That they crucified my savior
O seu lado esquerdo, um soldado romano
His left side, a Roman soldier
Com uma lança furou
Pierced with a spear
E o fel de amargura, na boca do mestre
And the bitterness, in the master's mouth
Ele colocou
He placed
Foi feito assim com meu redentor
It was done like this with my redeemer
Mas após três dias
But after three days
De dentro do túmulo, ele ressuscitou
From inside the tomb, he resurrected
