O Peregrino Na Terra

The Pilgrim on Earth

O Peregrino Na Terra

I am a pilgrim on earthSou peregrino na terra
And far from my homeE longe estou do meu lar
My soul longingly waitsMinha alma anelante espera
For Christ to come and take itQue Cristo a venha buscar
Here there is only disbeliefAqui só há descrença
The struggles have no endAs lutas não têm fim
But with Jesus' presenceMas de Jesus, a presença
Glory will be for me!Glória será para mim!

In the light of heaven I will restNo céu de luz vou descansar
With my Jesus I will dwellCom meu Jesus hei de morar

Having already believed in ChristEm Cristo tendo já crido
I will live only by faithSó pela fé viverei
For God has promised mePois Deus me tem prometido
That I will rest in heaven!Que no céu descansarei!
I have constantlyEu tenho permanente
The good ComforterO bom Consolador
Gently guiding meGuiando-me brandamente
To the living fountain of loveÀ fonte viva de amor

In the light of heaven I will restNo céu de luz vou descansar
With my Jesus I will dwellCom meu Jesus hei de morar

Although sometimes the believerEmbora às vezes o crente
May suffer the pains of the crossAs dores sofra da cruz
He will have permanent joyGozo terá permanente
When he sees Jesus in heavenQuando no céu vir Jesus
Crowned with gloryDe glória coroado
On the divine throneNo trono divinal
Praised by angels foreverPor anjos sempre louvado
In a celestial choirNum coro celestial

In the light of heaven I will restNo céu de luz vou descansar
With my Jesus I will dwellCom meu Jesus hei de morar
