Seguir Nu O Cristo Nu

You don’t need all this
To follow our Lord
It’s the phrase I hear most
It’s what everyone says

You don’t need to give up everything
Why live like this?
With no security
No comfort or protection?

You who had ahead of you
A promising future
I won’t accept this life
Of poverty and pain

It’s madness what you’re doing
An absurd choice
Where are those who love you?
All this is an illusion

It’s madness, madness of the cross

You don’t understand or accept
The path I’ve chosen
Don’t stop me, I beg you
From following and being happy

I found Him on the wood
Wounded and scarred
A naked body, bloodied
From whips and punishments

Naked, I will follow the naked Christ
Naked, I will follow the naked Christ

It’s the thing I want most
Everything I desire
Is to be

Naked, I will follow the naked Christ
Naked, I will follow the naked Christ

It’s the thing I want most
Everything I desire
Is to be naked

And may my only privilege
Be to have
No privilege at all
