Living by Faith: A Journey of Trust and Resilience
The song 'Vou Viver Pela Fé' by Comunidade Católica Shalom is a powerful anthem of faith and trust in divine providence. The lyrics emphasize the strength and resilience that faith can provide, even in the most challenging circumstances. The opening lines, 'A fé que move as montanhas,' reference a well-known biblical metaphor, suggesting that faith has the power to overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles. This faith is described as a 'coluna de fogo,' a pillar of fire that guides, sustains, and purifies, much like the divine presence that led the Israelites through the desert in the Old Testament.
The song continues to explore the theme of unwavering trust in God's promises, even when they are not yet visible. The lyrics, 'É crer no que ainda não se vê,' highlight the essence of faith as believing in what is not yet seen. This belief transforms into a declaration of devotion, 'Com a vida dizer que tu és meu senhor e meu deus,' affirming the singer's commitment to live a life guided by faith. The chorus reinforces this commitment, expressing a deep sense of security and peace in God's power to save and sustain, 'Vou viver pela fé pois eu sei que és poderoso para me salvar.'
The latter part of the song addresses the human experience of doubt and struggle. Lines like 'Se eu vacilar vou esperar' and 'Se eu não compreender vou confiar' acknowledge that moments of uncertainty and confusion are part of the faith journey. However, the song reassures that even in these moments, one can find solace and direction by returning to God, 'A quem mais irei se só tu tens palavra de vida eterna.' This message of resilience and unwavering trust in divine guidance makes 'Vou Viver Pela Fé' a deeply inspirational and comforting piece for believers.
