Hoje Eu Vim Te Perguntar
João Paulo (CCB)
Today I Came to Ask You
Today I came to ask you
For I can't understand
Oh God answer out of pity
I need to comprehend
It's about a void that
Has been visiting me for a while
And disturbing my sleep
I needed to tell you
I feel your strength taking me
Your glory surrounding me
But as I leave your presence
Sadness comes along
But today I thank you oh God
For you heard my plea
Made me know what's going on
Confused I am no more
I know that one day when God
In glory surprises us
And like the midday sun everything will be revealed
I know that one day, my Lord
This void will fill
If faithful, my soul a celestial
Body will receive
And there will be no more questions
For my soul will rejoice
The infinite joy in Christ
Will complete us in everything
Relieved I am now
Everything is clear
The desired joy I will only find in heaven
This is not my country
Here is not my place
I will never be happy, complete
Where iniquity resides
I will play my guitar
I will sing your songs
I'll disguise this sadness
I know it will end soon
I know that one day when God
In glory surprises us
And like the midday sun everything will be revealed
I know that one day my Lord
This void will fill
If faithful, my soul a celestial
Body will receive
And there will be no more questions
For my soul will rejoice
The infinite joy in Christ
Will complete us
