O Último e o Primeiro
Mirian Santos
The Last and the First
There are people out there thinking that I've changed
That I'm not the same anymore
That I don't do what I used to do
But I have a message for you
Who said I've changed, that I'll never do again
And what I did before I won't do anymore
Doesn't know who I am, nor how I can act
And I'm not bound by time, time is bound by me
Who said, affirmed that I'm not the Lord
That I'm just another man who passed on earth
They don't know that I am God and at the same time man
That I am in the present, in the future and know about yesterday
If I want, I make the clock go faster
Or stop the sun and the moon and time is stopped
And if it's necessary for time to go back
I've already given this example with Hezekiah's sundial
I heal wounds and also relieve pain
I enter the sun and don't feel the heat
My throne is above the universe, I am king, I am the Lord
I walk on the sea, when I want
And when I don't want, I part the sea
If I also don't want, I walk on its bed without drowning
I put out the fire or leave it burning and enter it and come out unharmed
I am the last to speak, but in your house I am the first
I break the bow, I cut the spear
I burn the chariots in fire
I take from those who have and give to those who don't
I make those who think they are great see their smallness
And see that by defeating me they will never have a chance
I make, then undo, destroy all obstacles
I rise from the throne, raise my hand, stretch out my arm
I do everything in my time, I never lose
I always win, not even draw
There are people who are restless, but I have a message for you
What is this restlessness if I am the owner of the earth?
And if I want I can, without fighting, win the war
I make the wind blow and bring quails
I make manna rain, for to me there are no limits
Keep singing, doing my work
Preaching my gospel, speaking of my glory
Take care of what is mine, and I will take care of yours and give you victory
