Amor Glorioso
Cantor Cristão
Glorious Love
He sought me tenderly
Jesus, the good shepherd;
He found me in misery,
Saved me with love;
In heaven the angels sang with joy
Yes, in harmony.
Oh! What glorious love!
Such a great price
That Jesus paid for me on the cross;
He showed me unheard-of grace!
Wounded and abandoned,
Jesus came to my aid;
And whispered to me: 'I found you
From now on, you are mine.'
I never heard such a gentle voice;
Never felt greater pleasure.
Oh! What glorious love!
Such a great price
That Jesus paid for me on the cross;
He showed me unheard-of grace!
Jesus showed me the wounds
He suffered in my place,
A crown, but of thorns,
The cross He endured;
What could He find in me
To endure such insults?
Oh! What glorious love!
Such a great price
That Jesus paid for me on the cross;
He showed me unheard-of grace!
My enraptured soul,
Contemplates His face,
Recalls the many blessings
Of His unparalleled love;
Praise and glory and adoration,
My heart offers to Him!
Oh! What glorious love!
Such a great price
That Jesus paid for me on the cross;
He showed me unheard-of grace!
As the hours pass,
I have joy and peace,
And await my good Master,
Who makes me so happy;
Jesus will come to fetch me,
And then I will enjoy forever.
Oh! What glorious love!
Such a great price
That Jesus paid for me on the cross;
He showed me unheard-of grace!
