Olha e Confiar

When I look at myself
All I can see is darkness
All that seems to be is illusion
That imprisons those who only live for themselves
When I look at myself I feel pain, I'm afraid of not being happy
The effects of what I wanted so much are visible
I've hurt myself too much, I need to look beyond
Beyond myself, beyond the end
Beyond things I've lost
I need to find meaning in my cross
I need to know the story of another cross

And when I look back
I'm led to forget what I cry about today
And to change the prayers I pray today
I can see beyond my cross
When I look back
In another cross I see Christ opening his arms
I gain strength to take new steps
I start to understand what will come
Through the plans He will carry out
If I just trust

Looking back
I see more than just a condemnation
I see marks, I see death that brings me forgiveness
Everything I live here then makes sense

And when I look back
I'm led to forget what I cry about today
And to change the prayers I pray today
I can see beyond my cross
When I look back
In another cross I see Christ opening his arms
I gain strength to take new steps
I start to understand what will come
Through the plans He will carry out
If I just trust
