Longe de ti Meu Jesus

Far from You, My Jesus

Longe de ti Meu Jesus

Far from You, my Jesus, what bitterness,Longe de ti meu Jesus, que amargura,
So much suffering, such sadness, such pain!Quanto sofrer, que tristeza, que dor!
Oh come, mortal, to the eternal and pure streamÓ vem mortal, à linfa eterna e pura
That the Lord presents to you at this altar.Que neste altar te apresenta o Senhor.

CHORUS:REFRÃO:
The flow burst forth from the spring of lifeA flux jorrou o manancial da vida
Thirsty soul, come closer to the altar!Alma sequiosa aproxima do altar!
To You, loving Jesus, it invites,A ti, Jesus amoroso convida,
Come, for Your body is heavenly food.Vem, que seu corpo é celestial manjar.
Come, for Your body is heavenly food.Vem, que seu corpo é celestial manjar.

Eucharist, You are my sweet breath,Eucaristia, és tu meu doce alento,
My comfort, my final hope;O meu conforto, esperança final;
Oh, be my good, my sun, and my sustenance,Ó, sê meu bem, meu sol e meu sustento,
Holy pledge of immortal triumph.Santo penhor do triunfo imortal.

Eternal fountain, for my soul longsFonte eternal porque minha alma anseia
Oh You, of the chosen, the everlasting song,Ó tu, do eleito o perene cantar,
It was Saint John, who first, at the Supper,Foi São João, quem primeiro, na Ceia,
Could, oh Jesus, enjoy this delight!Pode, ó Jesus, esse enlevo gozar!
