Te Amar

In 'Te Amar,' Juninho Cassimiro crafts a deeply spiritual and devotional song that centers on the theme of divine love and surrender. The lyrics express a profound desire to love and be close to God, emphasizing the act of forsaking personal desires and worldly attachments. The repetition of 'Te amar' (To love you) underscores the singer's commitment to this divine relationship, highlighting a sense of devotion and dedication that transcends earthly concerns.

The song's verses convey a longing to be near the cross, a powerful Christian symbol of sacrifice and redemption. By stating 'desprezar tudo o que é meu' (despise everything that is mine) and 'deixar morrer tudo o que é meu' (let everything that is mine die), the lyrics suggest a complete surrender of the self in favor of a higher spiritual calling. This act of surrender is not portrayed as a loss but as a necessary step to attain spiritual fulfillment and grace, as indicated by the line 'Só a Tua graça me basta' (Only Your grace is enough for me).

The imagery of climbing mountains to seek the Lord and staying at the foot of the cross reflects a journey of faith and perseverance. The repetition of phrases like 'Estar perto de Ti' (To be close to You) and 'Te buscar meu Senhor' (To seek You, my Lord) reinforces the idea of an ongoing, active pursuit of divine presence and love. Juninho Cassimiro's musical style, often characterized by its heartfelt and worshipful tone, complements the song's message, creating an atmosphere of reverence and intimacy with the divine.

'Ficar aos pés da Tua cruz' (Stay at the foot of Your cross) and 'Te olhar e ver que me olhas' (Look at You and see that You look at me) encapsulate the reciprocal nature of this divine relationship, where the act of seeking and loving God is met with divine attention and grace. 'Te Amar' is a beautiful expression of faith, inviting listeners to reflect on their own spiritual journeys and the transformative power of divine love.
