A Túnica
Samuel Mariano
The Tunic
I received a tunic
Very beautiful
So perfect
Several colors
I received
I received a tunic
I didn't ask for it, I didn't bargain
I didn't buy
I received
But one thing I didn't understand
Is that when I wore that tunic
It caused envy among my brothers
To the point of causing irritation
But tell me, what fault do I have?
It's just that daddy liked me and chose me
And the tunic the father gives to whom he wants
I'm his son, I'm from the house, I'm Joseph
Go talk to my father
Ask why he gave it to me
Bury the jealousy and be at peace
Because I won't let them take what's mine
They may even plan to sell me or, then, kill me
Tear the tunic, say that I died
But it was in anonymity where I grew up
And today God blessed me
Gave me grace and made me govern
And those who in the past tore my clothes
Invite to the party, to celebrate
The anointing you have was given by the Father
That voice you have was given by the Father
The grace you have was given by the Father
The burning call was given by the Father
They want to kill, but it was the Father who gave
Sell and slander, but it was the Father who gave
Rest, sing, stand firm
Because it was the Father who gave
No one kills whom the Father gives a tunic
No one hides whom the Father gives a tunic
No one stifles whom the Father gives a tunic
So give glory, for the Father gave you the tunic
No one kills whom the Father gives a tunic
No one hides whom the Father gives a tunic
No one stifles whom the Father gives a tunic
So give glory, for the Father gave you the tunic
Go talk to my father
Ask why he gave it to me
Bury the jealousy and be at peace
Because I won't let them take what's mine
They may even plan to sell me or, then, kill me
Tear the tunic, say that I died
But it was in anonymity where I grew up
And today God blessed me
Gave me grace, made me govern
And those who in the past tore my clothes
Invite to the party, to celebrate
The anointing you have was given by the Father
That voice you have was given by the Father
The grace you have was given by the Father
The burning call was given by the Father
They want to kill, but it was the Father who gave
Sell and slander, but it was the Father who gave
Rest, sing, stand firm
Because it was the Father who gave
No one kills whom the Father gives a tunic
No one hides whom the Father gives a tunic
No one stifles whom the Father gives a tunic
So give glory, for the Father gave you the tunic
No one kills whom the Father gives a tunic
No one hides whom the Father gives a tunic
No one stifles whom the Father gives a tunic
So give glory, for the Father gave you the tunic
The Father gave you the tunic
