De Madrugada

At Dawn
At dawn, I rise to pray
I feel that someone is close to me
And this someone I can recognize
Is my true friend
Who comes to help me
And this someone I can recognize
Is my true friend
Who comes to help me
I hear a voice very close to me
Saying "Ask what you want, I am here"
And, without feeling, I start to cry
Speaking in strange tongues
I feel the power of God
And, without feeling, I start to cry
Speaking in strange tongues
I feel the power of God
When I rise, I feel strengthened
I feel more strength to continue my journey
In my lamp, another drop fell
Of the holy oil of the Lord to anoint me
