Believe For It (Eu Creio) (feat. Cece Winans)
Gabriela Rocha
Unwavering Faith in the Face of Adversity
“Believe For It (Eu Creio)” by Gabriela Rocha, featuring Cece Winans, is a powerful anthem of faith and perseverance. The song's lyrics convey a message of unwavering belief in God's power to overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles. The opening lines, “They say this mountain can't be moved / They say these chains will never break,” set the stage for a narrative of doubt and disbelief from the world. However, the song counters this skepticism with a firm declaration of faith, emphasizing that “there is power in Your name.” This juxtaposition highlights the contrast between human limitations and divine omnipotence.
The bilingual nature of the song, with verses in both English and Portuguese, adds a layer of universality to its message. Gabriela Rocha sings, “Ouvi dizer que eu não vou / Atravessar essa maré,” which translates to “I heard that I won't / Cross this tide.” This line, coupled with the affirmation “Em Teu nome há poder” (In Your name, there is power), reinforces the theme of trusting in God's ability to perform miracles. The repeated chorus, “Move the immovable / Break the unbreakable / God, we believe / God, we believe for it,” serves as a mantra of hope and conviction, encouraging listeners to hold steadfast in their faith.
The song also touches on the resurrection of Jesus, a cornerstone of Christian belief, with the line “A esperança viva está / Pois o meu Deus ressuscitou” (Hope is alive / For my God has risen). This reference to the resurrection underscores the idea that with God, nothing is impossible. The bridge, “You are the way / When there seems to be no way / We trust in You / God, You have the final say,” encapsulates the essence of the song: a deep-seated trust in God's ultimate authority and plan. The closing lines, “You said it, I believe it / You said it, it is done,” reiterate the theme of faith in God's promises, affirming that what God has spoken will come to pass.
