The Martyr

O Mártir

Christ, being God, became like meCristo, sendo Deus, a mim Se igualou
Came down from heaven to bring forgiveness to the worldDo céu desceu para ao mundo dar perdão
He was born, grew up, and diedNasceu, cresceu e morreu
Fulfilling His missionCumprindo assim a sua missão
Being our SaviorSendo o nosso Salvador

Oh, my Jesus, why did you suffer like this?Oh, meu Jesus, por que sofreste assim?
Your blood poured out, not even a scream escapedSeu sangue jorrou, sem sequer um grito deu
It was there on the cross that the world witnessedFoi lá na cruz que o mundo presenciou
The sacrificed martyr completed everythingO mártir imolado tudo consumou

After 40 days, He ascendedDepois de 40 dias ascendeu
To the light of heaven, to reign there foreverAo céu de luz, para sempre ali reinará
In His glorious splendor, one day we shall beNa Sua glória de esplendor um dia deveremos estar
Reigning with Him thereJunto Dele ali reinar

Oh, my Jesus, why did you suffer like this?Oh, meu Jesus, por que sofreste assim?
Your blood poured out, not even a scream escapedSeu sangue jorrou, sem sequer um grito deu
It was there on the cross that the world witnessedFoi lá na cruz que o mundo presenciou
The sacrificed martyr completed everythingO mártir imolado tudo consumou
