Vem e Vê

In 'Vem e Vê,' John Dias crafts a spiritually evocative song that invites listeners to transcend the mundane and embrace a higher, divine calling. The lyrics open with an invitation to witness a 'porta aberta no céu' (an open door in heaven) and a 'escada que me leva até você' (a ladder that leads me to you). This imagery is reminiscent of the biblical story of Jacob's Ladder, symbolizing a connection between the earthly and the divine. The 'convite real' (royal invitation) suggests a call to leave behind worldly concerns and ascend to a place of spiritual enlightenment.

The repetition of 'Nem um olho viu, nem ouvido ouviu' (No eye has seen, no ear has heard) emphasizes the mystery and grandeur of what awaits in this divine realm. This phrase echoes 1 Corinthians 2:9, which speaks of the unimaginable wonders prepared by God for those who love Him. The song's chorus, 'Sobe aqui vem e vê' (Come up here and see), is a direct call to action, urging the listener to rise and experience something new and transformative. The promise of 'algo novo' (something new) suggests a fresh revelation or a deeper understanding of spiritual truths.

The final verses, 'O espírito e a noiva dizem vem' (The Spirit and the bride say come), are a reference to Revelation 22:17, where the Spirit and the bride invite all to partake in the divine. This dual invitation from both the Spirit and the bride (often interpreted as the Church) underscores the communal and inclusive nature of this spiritual journey. The repeated call for the 'amado' (beloved) to come highlights a deep, personal relationship with the divine, inviting the listener to become the 'amado' who responds to this sacred call.
