Quem Me vê Cantando

Who sees me singing
Thinks that all the time was just joy
And that in this life I never had reasons to cry
Who sees me singing never imagines
That I spent dark nights
Thinks that my life was to live happily and just sing

But it wasn't quite like that
I crossed the desert
Feet hurting from the thorns
And how many times I screamed
Because I couldn't bear the pain

God, will I die on this path?
But when I thought I was alone
The Almighty would appear
Renewing the promises
Reminding me of what he did
And words of comfort he would say

Remember the cloud by day, it was me
Remember the pillar of fire, it was me
I made water gush from the rock for you to drink

Remember the manna from heaven, it was me
Remember the path through the middle of the sea
Sing, for I am the one who takes care of you

No one will touch you
No one will stop you
And if they accuse you

I will defend you
I bless you here
I bless you there
Wherever your foot steps

Blessed you will be
I give, I take, I exalt, I humble
I bring down and honor, I give and take
I have, I do, I command, I can, I am

I am, I am
I can kill, I can make alive
I can exalt, I can bring down
And if I want to bless you
Who will contend?
