Há Uma Unção
Kleber Lucas
The Divine Presence in Unity
Kleber Lucas's song "Há Uma Unção" is a heartfelt expression of the palpable presence of God in a communal worship setting. The repeated line, "Há uma unção, já posso sentir" ("There is an anointing, I can already feel it"), emphasizes the immediate and tangible experience of divine anointing. This anointing is not just a spiritual concept but a felt reality, suggesting a deep connection between the worshippers and the divine presence. The lyrics convey a sense of awe and reverence, affirming that God is truly present among the congregation.
The song also highlights the importance of being in God's house, where love and blessings flow abundantly. The lines, "Eu prefiro estar na Tua casa, ó Senhor / Onde flui um rio de amor" ("I prefer to be in Your house, oh Lord / Where a river of love flows"), reflect a longing for the spiritual nourishment and community found in the church. This imagery of a flowing river symbolizes continuous and life-giving grace, reinforcing the idea that the church is a place of spiritual renewal and divine favor.
Furthermore, the song celebrates the joy of communal worship and fellowship. The lyrics, "Como é bom viver em união / Como és precioso meu irmão" ("How good it is to live in unity / How precious you are, my brother"), underscore the value of unity and brotherhood among believers. This sense of community is portrayed as a source of strength and joy, where serving God and each other becomes a shared and enriching experience. The song encapsulates the essence of Christian fellowship, where the presence of God is felt most profoundly in the unity and love of the congregation.
