Ten Confianza

The song 'Ten Confianza' by Alabanza is a powerful message of faith and resilience in the face of adversity. The lyrics speak to the listener's inner strength, encouraging them to hold on to their beliefs even when challenged by negative forces. The recurring image of the 'zarza,' or burning bush, is a biblical reference to the story of Moses and symbolizes the presence and guidance of God that remains constant and unyielding.

The song's title, 'Ten Confianza,' which translates to 'Have Confidence,' serves as a refrain and a reminder that faith can provide protection against evil. The 'ángel del señor,' or angel of the Lord, is depicted as creating a protective barrier around the believer, emphasizing the idea that divine forces are more powerful than any malevolent entity. The lyrics also touch upon themes of redemption and sacrifice, referring to being 'bought at the price of blood' by the 'king who lives, the sacrificed lamb, the God of Israel,' which are allusions to the Christian belief in Jesus Christ's sacrifice for humanity.

The song may also address feelings of self-doubt and the criticism one might face, as suggested by the line 'Es verdad lo que dicen, que para nada sirvo' ('It's true what they say, that I am good for nothing'). Despite these negative thoughts and external voices, the song encourages the listener to remain steadfast in their faith, as the 'zarza' continues to burn, symbolizing hope and divine presence that never fades.
