Buscou-me Com Ternura
Igreja Cristã Maranata
Sought Me Tenderly
He sought me with tenderness
Jesus, the good shepherd
He found me in misery
Saved me with love
In heaven they sang with joy
The angels, yes, in harmony
Oh! What glorious love!
Such a great price
That Jesus paid for me on the cross
He showed me unheard-of grace!
Wounded, abandoned
Jesus helped me
And he whispered to me: I found you
From now on you are mine
I have never heard such a sweet voice
I have never felt greater pleasure
Jesus showed me the wounds
Who suffered in my place
Crown, but of thorns
The cross he suffered
That could be found in me
To endure such insults?
My soul is enraptured
Your face to contemplate
Remember the many blessings
Of your unparalleled love
Praise and glory and worship
I pay tribute to him my heart!
As the hours pass
I have joy and peace
And I await my good master
That makes me so happy!
Jesus, come and get me
And then I will enjoy forever!
