Quem Era Eu

Who Was I

Quem Era Eu

Such great love made Jesus leaveTão grande amor fez Jesus deixar
His kingdom of glorySeu reino de glória
Thus exchanging the place of a kingTrocando assim o lugar de rei
For the place of a servantPelo lugar de servo

He did not exalt himself even being GodNão se exaltou mesmo sendo Deus
He was not served, but came to serveNão foi servido, mas veio servir
He did not despise, but was despisedNão desprezou, mas foi desprezado
By those he lovedPor quem ele amou

In this way, He did not give upSendo assim, Ele não desistiu
On his missionDa sua missão
He healed the sick, raised the deadOs enfermos curou, mortos ressuscitaram
By extending his hand!Ao estender sua mão!

They arrested him, they judged himLhe prenderam, lhe julgaram
As if he were a thiefComo se fosse um ladrão
They beat and spat on his faceBateram e cuspiram seu rosto
He endured such great humiliationPassou tão grande humilhação

They placed a crown of thorns on himColocaram uma coroa de espinho
And tore his clothesE rasgaram suas vestes
They mistreated my masterMaltrataram o meu mestre

And they beat him and beat himE lhe bateram e bateram
And they smiled, and they struckE sorriam, e batiam
He was innocently woundedFoi ferido inocente
And the guilty one was meE o culpado era eu
He carried the cross to GolgothaCarregou a cruz até o Gólgota
They crucified him thereLhe crucificaram ali
And at the end of the afternoon he diedE ao fim da tarde morreu

Who was I, what am IQuem era eu, o que sou eu
To deserve so much lovePra merecer tanto amor
Being a sinnerSendo eu pecador
He felt great compassion for meEle sentiu por mim grande compaixão

On the third dayNo terceiro dia
He rose againEle ressuscitou
Saving me from deathMe salvando da morte
Jesus, is my SaviorJesus, é o meu Salvador
In him I have the entranceNele tenho a entrada
To dwell in heavenPara morar no céu
Forever with the LordPara sempre com Senhor
