Seu Nome É

Daniel Souza's song "Seu Nome É" is a powerful hymn that exalts the divine attributes and titles of Jesus Christ. The lyrics are rich with biblical references and honorifics that highlight the multifaceted nature of Jesus. The song opens by listing several of His titles: "maravilhoso Conselheiro" (Wonderful Counselor), "Príncipe da paz" (Prince of Peace), "Deus forte" (Mighty God), and "Pai da eternidade" (Eternal Father). These titles are drawn from the book of Isaiah in the Bible, specifically Isaiah 9:6, and they emphasize Jesus' wisdom, peace-bringing nature, strength, and eternal existence. The mention of the "estrela da manhã" (morning star) further underscores His role as a guiding light and beacon of hope.

The second verse continues to elevate Jesus by calling Him the "santo de Israel" (Holy One of Israel) and the "Todo-poderoso Deus" (Almighty God). The lyrics assert that His reign is eternal, reinforcing the idea of His unending sovereignty and holiness. This verse serves to remind listeners of Jesus' divine authority and the perpetual nature of His kingdom.

In the final verse, the song refers to Jesus as the "Messias esperado" (expected Messiah), "Raiz de Davi" (Root of David), and the "Cordeiro imaculado" (spotless Lamb). These titles are deeply rooted in Christian theology, pointing to Jesus' fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies, His lineage from King David, and His role as the sacrificial Lamb who takes away the sins of the world. The chorus, which calls for all praise, honor, power, glory, and majesty to be given to the "soberano Rei dos reis" (sovereign King of kings), encapsulates the song's central theme of worship and adoration for Jesus Christ.
