A Mensagem da Cruz
Marcos Antônio
The Message of the Cross
Rude cross was erected
From it the day fled
As an emblem of shame and pain
But I contemplate this cross
Because on it Jesus
Gave his life for me, a sinner
Yes, I love the message of the cross
Until I die I will proclaim it
I will also carry my cross
Until I exchange it for a crown
From the glory of heaven
The Lamb of God
Descended to the humiliating Calvary
This cross has for me
Endless attractions
Because on it Jesus saved me
On this cross He suffered
And already died for me
My Jesus, to give me forgiveness
And I rejoice in the cross
From it comes grace and light
For my sanctification
Here with Jesus
The shame of the cross
I always want to bear and suffer
Christ comes to fetch me
And with Him, in the home
I will have a share of the glory
