Sobre As Ondas

Riding the Waves of Faith

The song "Sobre As Ondas" by Gerson Ramalho is a heartfelt expression of faith and reliance on a higher power amidst life's challenges. The lyrics convey a sense of wonder and sometimes confusion about the events that occur in life, acknowledging that there are things beyond human understanding. The singer expresses trust in God's omnipotence and sovereignty, suggesting that whatever happens is within God's will and control.

The metaphor of the sea and waves is used to describe the tumultuous and overwhelming aspects of life. The phrase "O mar as vezes é demais" translates to "Sometimes the sea is too much," indicating that there are moments when life's difficulties seem insurmountable. However, the song offers hope and reassurance with the line "Mas sobre às ondas tu virás," which means "But over the waves, you will come." This imagery suggests that God will come to the singer's aid, walking over the troubles just as Jesus is said to have walked on water in the Bible.

The song culminates in a declaration of faith and victory, with the repetition of the lines "E só assim, eu sei senhor / Me levantarei, aleluia!" This translates to "And only in this way, I know, Lord / I will rise, hallelujah!" It's a proclamation that through divine intervention and support, the singer will overcome the challenges faced. The use of "aleluia" emphasizes joy and praise, indicating a deep sense of gratitude and worship.
