Além da Cruz
Sérgio Lopes
Beyond the Cross
There was something beyond the cross
My eyes couldn't see
Amidst the sound of the crowd
I heard someone calling
Your name... Jesus...
I had never seen anyone
Die just for trying
To love those who wanted love so much
And love was there on the cross!
Walking away... Jesus...
Far beyond that cross
Your spilled blood
A mystery I saw in Your gaze
Your compassion, looking at the crowd
Anguished and not understanding that the law
Only brought them pain
Crucifying the love they lacked
Such mystery finally
Revealed itself to me
Even if the crowd
Doesn't believe in who You are
I believe in You, Lord
I want Your love
Have compassion on me!
