Foi assim que aconteceu
Coral Jovem do Rio
That's How It Happened
It was a day like any other
But the pain was there.
Christ was unjustly treated,
And at times denied.
They gave the people a chance
To choose who to kill
They chose the saintly one,
Who was born only to love.
How can I deny You
And pretend I don't know anything,
If on that sad day
Your suffering was for me,
Your skin was torn,
Your blood spilled,
Your life was the price
You paid for my living.
How can I deny You
And pretend I don't know anything,
Even though rejected
And accused by all,
You didn't use Your power
To destroy the wicked.
You carried Your cross,
In a humble walk
And on Your forehead a crown
That should have been mine.
How can I deny You
And pretend I don't know anything,
If on that sad day
Your suffering was for me,
Your skin was torn,
Your blood spilled,
Your life was the price
You paid for my living.
How can I deny You
And pretend I don't know anything.
That's how it happened,
This love story
It was for me, it was for you
That Jesus gave Himself.
That's how it happened...
