Christ, Light of the World

Cristo, Luz do Mundo

Where there was weeping, joy was heardOnde havia pranto, júbilo se ouviu
Instead of pain, eternal peace aroseEm lugar de dor, eterna paz surgiu
Where complete dryness prevailedOnde dominou completa sequidão
Waters sprang forth and brought salvationÁguas brotaram e trouxeram salvação

Christ, light of the worldCristo, luz do mundo
Is the Author of such precious redemptionÉ o Autor de tão preciosa redenção

Christ, Morning Star, celestial lightCristo, Estrela d’alva, luz celestial
That shone upon all mortalsQue resplandeceu a todo o mortal
Came to announce that the night has passedVeio anunciar que a noite já passou
And that the day of justice has arrivedE que o dia da justiça já chegou

Christ, counselor, Prince of peaceCristo, conselheiro, Príncipe da paz
Bread from heaven and brings life to allPão que vem do céu e vida a todos traz
Divine kingdom that descended upon usReino divinal que sobre nós desceu
Is the Savior that God promised to manÉ o Salvador que Deus ao homem prometeu
