O Sentido da Páscoa

The Meaning of Easter

O Sentido da Páscoa

I used to think that EasterEu pensava que a Páscoa
Was a celebrationEra uma celebração
Where there were only chocolatesOnde só havia chocolates
And lots of sweetsE doce de montão

I didn't know that JesusEu não sabia que Jesus
Died on the cross for meNa cruz por mim morreu
And his innocent bloodE o seu sangue inocente
Was shed for me therePor mim ali verteu

If it weren't for his deathSe não fosse a sua morte
On that rough crossNaquela rude cruz
I would be condemnedEu estaria condenado
To live without lightA viver sem luz

But it turns out that the LordMas acontece que o Senhor
Did not give up on meDe mim não desistiu
And his redeeming bloodE o seu sangue remidor
Fell upon meSobre mim caiu
