Lá No Deserto
Gerson Rufino
There in the Desert
There in the desert there is no water, no bread
There is almost no vegetation, hardly anything to eat
There in the desert, no asphalt, no sidewalk
There is no store, nothing; those who go there suffer
There is no school, no market, no bag
It was there that God made a school for the student to be Christian
In the desert, one only learns by humbling oneself
By following the teachings of fasting and prayer
Speak in the desert, sing in the desert
Preach in the desert, even if it's just for God
The pain and suffering will go away for a moment
You are an instrument, you are a child of His
The desert is not easy, but God has a palace
An eternal dwelling for the student who passes through
After the storm, your time will come
After this desert, there is only a life of victory
In heaven, there is a diploma that the Lord will give you
There in the desert, life is full of suffering
When torment arrives, when the tempter comes
But in the desert, we learn from Jesus
The teacher from the cross, who also passed through there
Forty days without tasting any food
When he was about to leave, he replied in the desert:
Man shall not live by bread alone
But by every word that comes from the mouth of God
