O PESCADOR
THE FISHERMAN
- Valsa · 3/4
É São Pedro quem nos mostra,
É São Pedro para ensinar
Que Jesus com seus discípulos
Numa barca foi ao mar
E disse a Pedro, lança a rede,
- Mas Meu Jesus, peixe não há
Simão Pedro, lança a rede,
Que Deus dá a quem procurar
Foram colhidos tantos peixes
Que a barca quis naufragar
Chorou Pedro aos seus pés,
Arrependido por duvidar
E Jesus Cristo na paciência,
Pedro, levanta e vais trabalhar,
Que agora com as tuas redes
Muitos homens tu vais pescar
It is Saint Peter who shows us,
It is Saint Peter who teaches
That Jesus with his disciples
In a boat went to the sea
And said to Peter, cast the net,
- But my Jesus, there are no fish
Simon Peter, cast the net,
For God gives to whoever seeks
So many fish were gathered
That the boat nearly sank
Peter wept at his feet,
Repentant for having doubted
And Jesus Christ in his patience,
Peter, rise and go to work,
For now with your nets
Many men you will fish
refrain, sung twicerefrain, sung three or more times
Hymn 18 of 50.
