Grito de Alerta

Celina Borges' song 'Grito de Alerta' is a powerful call to spiritual vigilance and awareness in a world she perceives as increasingly influenced by negative forces. The lyrics are a plea for Christians to remain steadfast in their faith and to be aware of the various spiritual and metaphysical ideologies that she believes are leading people astray. The song opens with a sense of urgency, urging listeners to 'speak out' and 'denounce' what she sees as an absurd era filled with misleading concepts like global consciousness, reincarnation, and various esoteric beliefs.

The song references the Age of Aquarius, a term often associated with new age spirituality and astrological beliefs, suggesting that these ideas are attempting to 'drown' the traditional Christian faith. Borges calls on Christians to 'hold on to what you have' and 'secure your crown,' invoking the biblical city of Philadelphia, which in Christian eschatology is often seen as a symbol of faithfulness and perseverance. The refrain emphasizes the certainty of victory for those who pray, reinforcing the belief that Jesus will return to triumph over these dark influences.

In the latter part of the song, Borges describes a battle against the 'Kingdom of Shambhala,' a mythical place often associated with Eastern mysticism and new age beliefs. She calls on the 'small faithful church' to march forward, declaring that the 'open door' of salvation cannot be closed by these dark forces. The song concludes with a rallying cry for Christians to submit the darkness to the light of Jesus, to recognize the signs of the times, and to help their fellow believers resist these negative influences. Borges' message is clear: the power and strength of God are the ultimate tools for conquering these spiritual battles, all for the glory of the Lord.
