Cara a Cara
Marcos Vidal
Face to face
Just one word, just one sentence
When I come into your presence oh Lord
I don't care where at the table you make me sit
Or the color of my crown, if I win it
Just one word, if I still have a voice left
And if I can articulate it, Your presence
I don't want to ask you questions, just a request.
And if it can be alone, much better
Just let me look at you face to face
And lose myself like a child in your gaze
And let a lot of time pass, and nobody say anything
Because I'm seeing the teacher face to face
May it drown in my memory, in your gaze
I want to love you in silence, and without words
And let a lot of time pass, and nobody say anything
Just let me look at you face to face
Just one word, just one sentence
When I come into your presence oh Lord
I don't care where at the table you make me sit
Or the color of my crown, if I win it
Just let me look at You face to face, even if I fall melted in Your gaze.
Defeated and on the ground, trembling and breathless
I will still continue to look at you, my teacher
When I fall between your plants, on my knees
Let me cry close to your wounds
And let a lot of time pass, and let no one stop me
I've been waiting for this moment all my life
