O Galileu

The Galilean

O Galileu

There in GalileeLá na Galileia
Far away from hereBem longe daqui
One day echoed the voice of the GalileanUm dia ecoou a voz do galileu
He was sent to that peopleFoi ele mandado para aquele povo
And the rebellious people did not receive himE o povo rebelde não o recebeu
Of this Galilean so humble and meekDeste galileu tão humilde e manso
The prophet Isaiah spoke long beforeO profeta Isaías bem antes falou
That he would come to bring good newsQue ele viria trazer boas novas
But his homeland did not accept himMais a sua pátria não o aceitou

Holy GalileanSanto galileu
Divine JesusDivino Jesus
I heard your voiceTua voz ouvi
And received youE te recebi
Today I have lightHoje tenho luz

This Galilean came to evangelizeEste galileu veio evangelizar
And announce the time of salvationE anunciar o tempo da salvação
He came to give sight to the blindEle veio dar visão para os cegos
And liberation to the captivesE para os cativos a libertação
They did not believe he was the MessiahQue era o messias não acreditaram
Because he was poor and a workerPor que era pobre e trabalhador
He had no home for his restNão teve um lar para seu repouso
But he was the redeemer of humanityMais da humanidade foi o redentor
