Today I Want Christ

Hoje eu quero Cristo

Barefoot, grounded on the floorPés descalços, firme ao chão
Between the cross and lonelinessEntre a cruz e a solidão
There He wasLá estava Ele
In the midst of the crowdEm meio à multidão
My heart was poundingBatia forte o coração
To give me forgivenessPra me dar o perdão

They rejected Jesus, didn’t want to acceptRejeitaram a Jesus, não quiseram aceitar
The one who spoke of peaceQuem falou de paz
Everyone shouted, kill this manTodos diziam, matem este homem
Give us BarabbasDá-nos Barrabás

But I keep thinking, what would become of meMas fico a pensar, o que seria de mim
If it weren’t for this waySe não fosse desse jeito
What way to find or how to discoverQual forma pra encontrar ou maneira de achar
That would give me the right to be happyQue me desse o direito de ser feliz

A long time ago, they wanted BarabbasHá muito tempo atrás, quiseram Barrabás
Now I say, today I want ChristAgora eu digo, hoje eu quero Cristo

Today I want Christ, in my life, in my beingHoje eu quero Cristo, em minha vida no meu ser
Today I want Christ, for with Him I will winHoje eu quero Cristo, pois com Ele vou vencer
Today I want Christ, for with Him I am happyHoje eu quero Cristo, pois com Ele sou feliz
Today I want Christ, today I want ChristHoje eu quero Cristo, hoje eu quero Cristo
In my lifeEm minha vida
