Providência

Providence
In the middle of the desert, without a friend and without a home
She walks and goes, goes, goes
With a piece of bread and a skin of water
She walks and goes, goes, goes
With nowhere to go and nowhere to stay
She seemed alone, with no one to help
This is how Hagar and her son Ishmael
They walked wandering, under the gaze of the sky
They walked for many days in the heat
They ate all the bread and the water ran out
They no longer had any sustenance to feed them
It felt like the end was coming
Oh, and all the water in the bottle was consumed
Hagar laid the boy under a tree
And distanced himself from him
And almost without strength
But protected by the shade of that tree
Who knows, Ismael cried
And God heard the boy's voice
And he sent an angel to her, calling out to Hagar
I told you so
Hagar, don't worry about that
Do not be afraid, because God heard the voice of the boy
Her eyes opened and she saw
The source of water that God showed him
He gave the boy water and drank it too
Renewed strength to go further
God acts like this, it's impossible to explain
Allow everything to come to an end
You pray, you cry, and God arrives on time
He has to give it to you!
I have water, I have bread
I have grace, I have salvation
I have life, I have surprises
I have provisions here today for my church
It's not over, there's still more
This desert will never kill you
Call me, cry out my name
Because for you, in the desert I create a fountain
I am the God who speaks to you
Rest in me, for I am your friend
Don't despair, you won't die
There is still a lot that you will experience
Now that I hear you, I listen and I answer
I answer and do, do and surprise
I surprise the earth, the earth listens to me
I make the desert a great river, without rain falling
Contemplate victory, victory is certain
Right for those who seek, search and wait
Your future is great and it is already certain
Because I have providence for you in the desert!
I have water, I have bread
I have grace, I have salvation
I have life, I have surprises
I have provisions here today for my church
It's not over, there's still more
This desert will never kill you
Call me, cry out my name
Because for you, in the desert I create a fountain
I am the God who speaks to you
Rest in me, for I am your friend
Don't despair, you won't die
There is still a lot that you will experience
Now that I hear you, I listen and I answer
I answer and do, do and surprise
I surprise the earth, the earth listens to me
I make the desert a great river, without rain falling
Contemplate victory, victory is certain
Right for those who seek, search and wait
Your future is great and it is already certain
Because I have providence for you in the desert!
(He is a Lord of providence)
In the desert
Providence in the desert!
