Justiça do Senhor

I have never seen a righteous person forsaken
Nor a child of Abraham ashamed
But the people of the Lord carry in their hearts
A desire for justice, a suppressed cry

Is it fair, oh God
For your people to live like this?
Enslaved, humiliated, unjustly suffering
The greatest pain that exists within my heart
Is to have such a great God
And live in this situation

And I wonder if the God of Israel has grown old
Or if He has forgotten the wonders of the past
From the land of Egypt the Lord did not take us out
To suffer in the hot desert

Extend your gavel
Oh! Great Judge God
And crush the injustice
That afflicts your people
I know that you are just
My God has never failed
Your justice is certain
Justice of the Lord
