João Batista

He testified about Him wherever he went
He spoke about Him and did not remain silent
His life and his time, his subject and thought
Were all focused on Him

He spoke and exclaimed
This is the Messiah!
Who comes after me, but who already existed
The Son sent, the Man awaited from the most beautiful prophecies

He spoke so much about Christ to this world
That they came to know who this intruder was
Who was preaching and speaking to the people
About a man who is King
The Son of the Almighty God
They asked his name and he did not remain silent
And to those who asked him, he did not deny
And with the grace he had in his life
He confessed like this

I am just a voice crying in the wilderness
Prepare for the coming of the Lord!

He did not care about being recognized
What he wanted was to speak about Christ
He baptized with water, but he proclaims to all
He who comes after me is the one who will baptize with fire
Like everyone else, he did not dress
And did not eat all delicacies
He walked by faith and not by sight
He was John the Baptist

Example to be followed, we have plenty of that
John the Baptist is one of them that the Bible shows us
To do the work, but the honor and glory be given only to Him

Speaking of the gospel and only that
That the main theme be only Christ
The Christ who was born, lived, died
But rose from the grave and is alive
It's a pity that there are many who no longer think about this
Their focus and intention is to be recognized

They invent so much, talk so much nonsense
Just to make money and exalt their vanity
But while many have already lost grace
Who only aim for money and to be known in the square
There is still a people who still have fire and exclaim loudly

I am just a voice
But He shines in me
All honor, all glory and majesty
It's all His

I preach and He saves
I sing and He baptizes
I pray and He heals
I expel and He removes
I only do what He commands
I only speak when He sends
For I have nothing of my own
But everything emanates from Him
My subject is Christ
My theme is only Christ
For I was only called to speak about this
He is already at the doors, but until He returns
My subject is only Christ, Christ!
