Vivo Agradecido
Danilo Ordoñes
Grateful Living
Today I live grateful to Jesus who has given me
From his immense wealth what I did not expect
Being a poor and unfortunate man in the company of pigs
Like a prodigal son and my steps sure on the way to hell
What a sad situation for a man without Christ
Without God's help, I say he is lost
That's why with more insistence I thank my beautiful creator
For what he has given me, his eternal love and glory in heaven
How can I repay what he has done for me
Sentenced to death was my cruel fate
Jesus appears and pleads my case
And like a fair judge, he said I owe nothing
There's no reason to be sad or to lament
Thinking of Jesus brings joy
Being the owner of everything, he is our father
If you call him, he answers; if you knock, doors open
He says, cry out to me and I will answer you
There are promises in God that we must take advantage of
Being in his presence is the most special thing
His promise is to be with us every day
If he is by our side, who can be against us
Whether I live or die, I belong to Christ
How can I repay what he has done for me
Sentenced to death was my cruel fate
Jesus appears and pleads my case
And like a fair judge, he said I owe nothing
How can I repay what he has done for me
Sentenced to death was my cruel fate
Jesus appears and pleads my case
And like a fair judge, he said I owe nothing
