História da Cruz

Story of the Cross

História da Cruz

In Jerusalem, they arrested JesusEm Jerusalém, prenderam Jesus
My saviorO meu salvador
They spat on his face, with the strength of their armCuspiram na face, com a força do braço
They whipped himO chicoteou
How my redeemer sufferedComo sofreu o meu redentor
It was on the woodFoi sobre o madeiro
That they crucified my saviorQue crucificaram o meu salvador

Roman soldiers put up the crossSoldados romanos puseram a cruz
And Jesus was liftedE Jesus levantou
Through all the streets, the great woodPor todas as ruas, o grande madeiro
My lord draggedMeu senhor arrastou
How my redeemer sufferedComo sofreu o meu redentor
It was on the woodFoi sobre o madeiro
That they crucified my saviorQue crucificaram o meu salvador

And when they arrived there at CalvaryE quando chegaram ali no calvário
They laid Jesus downDeitaram Jesus
With open arms, on the great woodDe braços abertos, no grande madeiro
In the form of a crossEm forma de cruz
How my redeemer sufferedComo sofreu o meu redentor
It was on the woodFoi sobre o madeiro
That they crucified my saviorQue crucificaram o meu salvador

And on his feet and also his handsE sobre os seus pés e também suas mãos
Great nails were hammeredGrandes cravos pregaram
My savior, between two thievesO meu salvador, entre dois ladrões
There they raisedAli levantaram
How my redeemer sufferedComo sofreu o meu redentor
It was on the woodFoi sobre o madeiro
That they crucified my saviorQue crucificaram o meu salvador

His left side, a Roman soldierO seu lado esquerdo, um soldado romano
With a spear piercedCom uma lança furou
And the gall of bitterness, in the mouth of the masterE o fel de amargura, na boca do mestre
He placedEle colocou
It was done like this with my redeemerFoi feito assim com meu redentor
But after three daysMas após três dias
From inside the tomb, he roseDe dentro do túmulo, ele ressuscitou
