Ele Sofreu Por Mim

He Suffered for Me

Ele Sofreu Por Mim

I read that Jesus was arrestedEu li que Jesus fora preso
My soul trembled with painDe dor, a minh'alma vibrou
I didn’t feel this way beforeEu antes assim não sentia
But now it’s got me stirred upAgora isto a mim empolgou
I read that He was led awayEu li que Ele foi conduzido
To the court in JerusalemÀ corte de Jerusalém
There He suffered great shameAli padeceu grande afronta
And was crowned with thorns as wellFoi coroado de espinhos também

I know I was the guilty oneEu sei que eu era o culpado
But He already suffered for meMas Ele sofreu já por mim
I know He was innocentEu sei que Ele era inocente
Enduring all of thisPadecendo tudo assim

I read that Jesus was judgedEu li que Jesus foi julgado
He carried a heavy crossUma cruz mui pesada levou
And on it, breathing His lastE nela, por mim expirando
He took on my vile sinsOs meus vis pecados tomou
While hanging on the crossEnquanto na cruz pendurado
A spear pierced His sideUma lança Seu lado furou
They gave Him vinegar on a spongeNa esponja Lhe deram vinagre
And He drank it down for meE Ele por mim o tragou

I know I was the guilty oneEu sei que eu era o culpado
But He already suffered for meMas Ele sofreu já por mim
I know He was innocentEu sei que Ele era inocente
Enduring all of thisPadecendo tudo assim

Then Joseph of ArimatheaDepois, José de Arimatéia
And other disciples tooE outros discípulos também
Laid Him in a tombPuseram-no em um sepulcro
And the guards kept watch real closeE os guardas vigiavam bem
While in the world, He saidEnquanto no mundo, Ele disse
That He would rise againQue havia de ressuscitar
And God performed a miracleE Deus fez então um milagre
Bringing Him back from the dead!Fazendo-o dos mortos tornar

I know I was the guilty oneEu sei que eu era o culpado
But He already suffered for meMas Ele sofreu já por mim
I know He was innocentEu sei que Ele era inocente
Enduring all of thisPadecendo tudo assim

The guards were still on watchOs guardas ainda vigiavam
When an angel came from heavenQuando um anjo veio do Céu
And the stone at the doorE a pedra que estava na porta
Was rolled away with great powerCom grande poder, removeu
Quickly the bonds fell offDepressa os laços caíram
This was God’s plan all alongO plano de Deus era assim
And the light and life shone brightE a luz e a vida resplendem
And all of this was for me!E isto foi tudo por mim

I know I was the guilty oneEu sei que eu era o culpado
But He already suffered for meMas Ele sofreu já por mim
I know He was innocentEu sei que Ele era inocente
Enduring all of thisPadecendo tudo assim
