Choosing God Over Worldly Pleasures

Pedro Henrique's song "Escolho Deus" is a heartfelt declaration of faith and devotion. The lyrics express a deep yearning to connect with God, emphasizing the importance of spiritual fulfillment over material wealth and worldly success. The singer acknowledges his human flaws and seeks forgiveness, highlighting a sincere desire to please God. This sentiment is encapsulated in the line, "Só Tu conheces meu desejo de Te agradar," which translates to "Only You know my desire to please You."

The song contrasts the transient nature of fame, success, and material possessions with the enduring presence of God. Phrases like "A fama passa, sucesso passa" ("Fame passes, success passes") and "O que o mundo oferece, com o tempo perece" ("What the world offers, with time perishes") underscore the fleeting nature of worldly achievements. In contrast, God's presence is described as everlasting, providing a sense of stability and purpose that worldly gains cannot offer.

A recurring theme in the song is the act of surrendering oneself to God. The lyrics repeatedly mention placing one's life on the altar, symbolizing a complete and unconditional devotion to God. This act of surrender is portrayed as the ultimate form of worship and fulfillment, as seen in the lines, "Eu já coloquei a minha vida no altar / Pois o que eu mais quero é Te adorar" ("I have already placed my life on the altar / Because what I most want is to worship You"). The song ultimately serves as a powerful reminder of the enduring value of spiritual devotion over the temporary allure of worldly pleasures.
