O Rosto de Cristo (Louvor Que Abalou a Igreja)
Lucas Roque e Gabriel
The Face of Christ (Praise That Shook the Church)
Every time I read the story of Christ
I think, with great emotion
Of the privilege that many had
To see His face, feel His hand
I would also have the same joy
To see Him up close, right next to me
Look into His serene and gentle eyes
Oh how happy I would be!
I wish I knew what His face was like
Although I feel it was very beautiful
It inspired faith and also trust
And gave everyone endless joy
Seeing the engravings of the painted pictures
Of what they say is my Lord
My being does not accept what is on the canvas
The painter's inspiration is false
I do not believe, I do not believe in a defeated Christ
Full of bitterness, a face of pain
I believe in a Christ with a joyful face
I believe in the victorious Christ
And one day, I too will see face to face
And so I believe, through my faith
Oh Hallelujah! I will see His face
I will see Jesus, as He is
Oh Hallelujah! I will see His face
I will see Jesus, as He is
