Deixa Entrar o Rei da Glória
Hinário Adventista
Embracing the King of Glory: A Call to Salvation
The song 'Deixa Entrar o Rei da Glória' by Hinário Adventista is a heartfelt call to embrace Jesus Christ as the savior. The lyrics begin with an urgent plea, 'Ouve a voz, Jesus te chama!' (Hear the voice, Jesus is calling you!), urging the listener to heed the call of Jesus, who loves and seeks to save them. This opening sets the tone for the entire song, emphasizing the importance of responding to Jesus' call without delay.
The chorus reinforces this message by inviting the listener to 'Deixa entrar o rei da glória' (Let the King of Glory enter) and to open their heart to Him. It promises that by doing so, one will achieve ultimate victory and salvation. This metaphor of opening one's heart to the King of Glory is powerful, suggesting that true peace and fulfillment come from allowing Jesus into one's life.
The second verse contrasts the fleeting pleasures of sin with the lasting comfort and peace that only Jesus can provide. It states that 'Os prazeres do pecado não trarão conforto ou paz' (The pleasures of sin will not bring comfort or peace), highlighting the emptiness of a life lived in sin. Instead, it is 'Só Jesus, o mestre amado, tua alma satisfaz' (Only Jesus, the beloved master, satisfies your soul), underscoring the idea that true satisfaction and contentment are found in a relationship with Jesus.
The final verse offers hope and grace to the sinner, reminding them that 'Hoje ainda graça existe para ti, ó pecador!' (Today, grace still exists for you, oh sinner!). It encourages the listener to leave behind their sorrowful life and come to the Savior, reinforcing the theme of redemption and the transformative power of accepting Jesus into one's heart.
