Canto a Mi Padre

Now I can understand, what he wanted to doAhora puedo entender, lo que el quiso hacer
Now I can understand, what you have been throughAhora puedo entender, por lo que has pasado tú
Now I can see your life passing byAhora puedo ver tú vida al pasar
How he chose youComo el te escogió
And used your lifeY tu vida el uso

Sometimes the darkness wanted to overshadow youA veces las tinieblas te quisieron opacar
But you kept firm without looking backPero tu seguistes firme sin volver atrás
Thank you, LordGracias te doy Señor
I could hear you sobPude oírte sollozar
Through everything he could be, Lord your faithful servantA través de todo el pudo ser, Señor tu siervo fiel
There was no price, oh Lord, that he did not want to payNo hubo precio oh señor, que el no quiso pagar
There was no cross he did not want to bearNo hubo una cruz que el no quiso llevar

He gave his whole life, to do your willEl dio toda su vida, por hacer tu voluntad
He traveled all over the worldTodo el mundo el viajo
But he finally arrived homePero a su hogar al fin llego

Now he is in your presenceYa él está en tu presencia
And the angels surround himY los ángeles le rodean
His white robeSu vestidura blanca
Shines on his bodySobre su cuerpo resplandece
His face is radiant, hearing God sayRadiante esta su rostro, al oír a Dios decir
My servant has arrived, your race is overMi siervo ha llegado, ya tu carrera termino
