Prefiro Olhar Pro Alto
Fernando Iglesias
I Prefer to Look Upward
Just yesterday I cried
Listening to a song
Old pictures I kept
Reminded me of my brother
Moments of joy
Made me reflect
The time he lived here
Was so short for me
I then remembered everything
Jesus promised me
I thought of the home of glory and peace
That He made for His children
There is no more death there
I will see my brother
Thinking like this makes me live
It warms my heart
I can go on with life
Remembering what has passed
But I prefer to look upward
See the home where I'm going
I want to talk to my Jesus
Together we will walk
And my tears
My Jesus will dry
Here on earth Christ walked
And then returned to the Father
But I feel His gaze on me
And by my side He always goes
My greatest desire
Is to be able to embrace Him
And of the longing I felt
To my Christ I will speak
I can go on with life
Remembering what has passed
But I prefer to look upward
See the home where I'm going
I want to talk to my Jesus
Together we will walk
And my tears
My Jesus will dry
And my tears
My Jesus will dry
