Madeiro Lavrado Lyrics Translation in English

Cortaram madeiro, fizeram uma cruz para o meu Salvador

They cut a log, made a cross for my Savior

Madeiro lavrado, com pregos cravados, pesada ficou

Lavishly crafted wood, with driven nails, became heavy

Ele carregou a cruz, no caminho caiu

He carried the cross, fell along the way

Mas Deus deu-lhe graça, morrendo na cruz

But God showed him grace, dying on the cross

Por mim e por ti

For me and for you

Foi feita assim, a cruz do Salvador

That's how the Savior's cross was made

Madeiro lavrado, com pregos cravados

Lavishly crafted wood, with driven nails

Pesada ficou

Became heavy

Perante Pilatos Jesus foi levado como um malfeitor

Before Pilate, Jesus was taken as a criminal

Chegando a Ele, olhando ao Mestre, assim perguntou

Approaching Him, looking at the Master, he asked

És o rei dos judeus? Disse Jesus: Na verdade, Eu Sou

Are you the king of the Jews? Jesus said: Truly, I am

O Meu reino é eterno, não é desse mundo, daqui Eu não sou

My kingdom is eternal, not of this world, I am not from here

Foi feita assim, a cruz do Salvador

That's how the Savior's cross was made

Madeiro lavrado, com pregos cravados

Lavishly crafted wood, with driven nails

Pesada ficou

Became heavy

Chegando ao Calvário, pregaram na cruz, o meu Salvador

Arriving at Calvary, they nailed my Savior to the cross

Com a coroa de espinhos, com a fronte sangrada, ao Pai suplicou

With a crown of thorns, with a bleeding brow, He pleaded to the Father

Transpassado de dor ficou o meu Salvador

Pierced with pain was my Savior

Às três horas da tarde inclinou a cabeça e ali expirou

At three in the afternoon, He bowed His head and breathed His last

Foi feita assim, a cruz do Salvador

That's how the Savior's cross was made

Madeiro lavrado, com pregos cravados

Lavishly crafted wood, with driven nails

Pesada ficou

Became heavy

Foi feita assim, a cruz do Salvador

That's how the Savior's cross was made

Madeiro lavrado, com pregos cravados

Lavishly crafted wood, with driven nails

Pesada ficou

Became heavy
