Como Agradecer
Igreja Adventista do Sétimo Dia
A Hymn of Gratitude and Devotion
The song "Como Agradecer" by Igreja Adventista do Sétimo Dia is a Christian hymn expressing deep gratitude and reverence for the sacrifices made by Jesus Christ. The lyrics reflect a sense of unworthiness in the face of divine love and the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus, which is a common theme in Christian worship music. The song's title, which translates to 'How to Thank,' sets the tone for a contemplative and humble acknowledgment of the grace that the singer feels has been bestowed upon them.
The repeated lines 'A Deus seja a glória,' meaning 'To God be the glory,' emphasize the core message of the song: giving all credit and praise to God for the blessings and transformation experienced by the believer. The mention of Jesus' blood washing away sins and His power transforming the believer are references to the Christian belief in redemption and the transformative power of accepting Christ's sacrifice. The song is a declaration of faith and a personal testament to the changes that faith has brought into the singer's life.
The desire to surrender one's life to God and to offer praise for eternal salvation is a commitment to live according to Christian teachings. The song serves as both a personal expression of faith and a call to other believers to recognize and celebrate the spiritual renewal they have received. It is a musical prayer of thanks, reflecting the deep emotional and spiritual connection that the singer has with their faith.
