Deste Mundo Escravo Fui (Grandes Coisas Fez o Senhor Por Nós)

From this slave world I was
Imprisoned in endless illusions
And I found myself asking
When will the Lord come for me?
As when in captivity
The Lord brought to Zion
His beloved people
It was like a dream
Our mouths were filled with laughter and song
And among the nations it was said
Great things the Lord has done!
Great things the Lord has done for us
Great things the Lord has done for us

I have sown my tears
I will reap the fruits of justice
As when in captivity
The Lord brought me
It was like a dream
My mouth was filled with laughter and song
And I will say among the nations
That great things the Lord has done!
Great things the Lord has done for us
Great things the Lord has done for us
Now I live in hope of meeting Him
One day in heaven
End
Now I live in hope of meeting Him
One day in heaven
In heaven
