Oliveira Verdadeira

True Olive Tree

Oliveira Verdadeira

It was an olive tree, a broken branchEra uma oliveira um ramo quebrado
And the olive tree was grafted thereE o zambujeiro ali foi enxertado
This olive tree is my JesusEsta oliveira, é o meu Jesus
I was grafted into it, today I have lightFui nele enxertado, hoje tenho luz

True olive tree, Jesus Christ isOliveira verdadeira, Jesus Cristo é
I was grafted into him through faithNele fui enxertado através da fé
Can I bear fruit, grafted like this?Posso eu dar frutos, enxertado assim
Christ is an olive tree, I no longer liveCristo é oliveira, não mais vivo eu
But Christ lives in meMas Cristo vive em mim

Wild olive tree, does not bear good fruitZambujeiro bravo, não dá frutos bons
That's how I was in my heartAssim era eu no meu coração
But one fine day, everything changedMas um belo dia, tudo transformou
I was grafted into my saviorEu fui enxertado no meu salvador

Christ is an olive tree, in him I am happyCristo é oliveira, nele sou feliz
I am connected to it in the trunk and in the rootNele estou ligado no tronco e na raiz
Connected to the olive tree with all my heartLigado na oliveira de todo coração
Can I bear fruit and bear good fruit?Posso eu dar frutos e dar frutos bons
