Madeiro Lavrado

Carved Wood

Madeiro Lavrado

They cut the wood, made a cross, for my SaviorCortaram o madeiro, fizeram uma cruz, para o meu Salvador
Carved wood, with nails driven, heavy it becameMadeiro lavrado, com pregos cravados, pesada ficou
He carried the cross, on the way he fellEle carregou a cruz, no caminho caiu
But God gave him grace, dying on the cross for me and for youMas Deus deu-lhe graça, morrendo na cruz por mim e por ti

This is how the Savior's cross was madeFoi feita assim, a cruz do Salvador
Carved wood, with nails driven, heavy it becameMadeiro lavrado, com pregos cravados, pesada ficou

Before Pilate, Jesus was taken as a criminalPerante Pilatos, Jesus foi levado como um malfeitor

My Kingdom is eternal, not of this world, I am not from hereO Meu Reino é eterno, não é deste mundo, daqui Eu não Sou

This is how the Savior's cross was madeFoi feita assim, a cruz do Salvador
Carved wood, with nails driven, heavy it becameMadeiro lavrado, com pregos cravados, pesada ficou

Arriving at Calvary, they nailed my Savior to the crossChegando ao Calvário, pregaram na cruz o meu Salvador
The crown of thorns, his forehead bleeding, he pleaded to the FatherA coroa de espinhos, sua fronte sangrando ao Pai suplicou
Pierced with pain, my Savior remainedTranspassado de dor ficou o meu Salvador
At three o'clock in the afternoon, he bowed his head and expiredÀs três horas da tarde, inclinou a cabeça e ali expirou

This is how the Savior's cross was madeFoi feita assim, a cruz do Salvador
Carved wood, with nails driven, heavy it becameMadeiro lavrado, com pregos cravados, pesada ficou
