ELES TENTARAM
THEY TRIED
- Noemia A. Cotrim
Eles tentaram me pegar
Eles tentaram me derrubar
Eles tentaram me intimidar
Eles tentaram me afundar
Mas meu Mestre me segurou
Meu Mestre me levantou
Meu Mestre me iluminou
Meu Mestre me ressuscitou
Eles tentaram me enganar
Eles tentaram me roubar
Eles tentaram me derrotar
Eles tentaram me afundar
Mas Jesus Cristo me segurou
Jesus Cristo me levantou
Jesus Cristo me iluminou
Jesus Cristo me ressuscitou
E é com meu Mestre que eu vou
Vou nas águas do amor
Vou no barco do Senhor
Para vencer com o Salvador
They tried to catch me
They tried to knock me down
They tried to intimidate me
They tried to sink me
But my Mestre held me
My Mestre lifted me up
My Mestre enlightened me
My Mestre resurrected me
They tried to deceive me
They tried to rob me
They tried to defeat me
They tried to sink me
But Jesus Christ held me
Jesus Christ lifted me up
Jesus Christ enlightened me
Jesus Christ resurrected me
And it is with my Mestre that I go
I go on the waters of love
I go in the boat of the Lord
To triumph with the Savior
