O Amigo

The Friend

O Amigo

The friend I found took me by surpriseO amigo que eu encontrei me surpreendeu
When everyone left me, He welcomed meQuando todos me deixaram, Ele me acolheu
And He healed my wounds, freed me from my chainsE sarou minhas feridas, das algemas me livrou
I told Him all my troubles, and He listened to meLhe falei do meu dilema e Ele me escutou

I spoke to Him about my past, and He forgave meLhe falei do meu passado e me perdoou
It came at a high price, one He's already paidIsso teve um alto preço que Ele já pagou
He showed me His wounded hands, scarred by love for many livesMe mostrou as mãos feridas por amor de muitas vidas
And among those many lives was mine, yeahE uma dessas muitas vidas era eu, ê

Who in this world could have such a great loveQuem nesse mundo amor tão grande pode ter
That they'd give their own life without fear?De entregar a própria vida sem temer?
Who has felt the pain of being nailed to a crossQuem já sentiu a dor de ser cravado em uma cruz
Paying for sins that weren't their own?Pagando pelos erros que não cometeu?

And who could look into the eyes of those who hurt Him mostE olhar nos olhos de quem tanto mal lhe fez
And, without resentment, offer forgiveness?E, sem ressentimento, oferecer perdão
Who could be a better friend than the LordQuem pode ser melhor amigo que o Senhor
Who gave up His very life for His servant?Que pelo servo a própria vida renunciou?
Who could be a better friend than the LordQuem pode ser melhor amigo que o Senhor
Who gave up His very life for His servant?Que pelo servo a própria vida renunciou?
