Crer e Observar
Em Jesus confiar, sua lei observar
Oh, que gozo, que bênção, que paz!
Satisfeitos guardar tudo quanto ordenar
Alegria perene nos traz
Crer e observar
Tudo quanto ordenar
O fiel obedece
Ao que Cristo mandar!
O inimigo falaz e a calúnia mordaz
Cristo pode desprestigiar
Nem tristeza, nem dor, nem intriga maior
Poderão ao fiel abalar
Crer e observar
Tudo quanto ordenar
O fiel obedece
Ao que Cristo mandar!
Que delícia de amor, comunhão com o Senhor
Tem o crente zeloso e leal
O seu rosto mirar, seus segredos privar
Seu consolo constante e real
Crer e observar
Tudo quanto ordenar
O fiel obedece
Ao que Cristo mandar!
Resolutos, Senhor, e com fé, zelo e ardor
Os Teus passos queremos seguir
Teus preceitos guardar, o Teu nome exaltar
Sempre a Tua vontade cumprir
Crer e observar
Tudo quanto ordenar
O fiel obedece
Ao que Cristo mandar!
Believe and Observe
To trust in Jesus, to observe His law
Oh, what joy, what blessing, what peace!
Satisfied to keep all that He commands
Brings us everlasting joy
Believe and observe
All that He commands
The faithful obey
What Christ commands!
The deceitful enemy and the biting slander
Christ can discredit
Neither sadness, nor pain, nor greater intrigue
Can shake the faithful
Believe and observe
All that He commands
The faithful obey
What Christ commands!
What a delight of love, communion with the Lord
The zealous and loyal believer has
To gaze upon His face, to keep His secrets
His constant and real comfort
Believe and observe
All that He commands
The faithful obey
What Christ commands!
Resolved, Lord, and with faith, zeal, and ardor
We want to follow Your steps
To keep Your precepts, to exalt Your name
Always fulfill Your will
Believe and observe
All that He commands
The faithful obey
What Christ commands!
