Faz Morada
Sulamita Alves
A Heartfelt Plea for Renewal and Divine Presence
“Faz Morada” by Sulamita Alves is a deeply emotional and spiritual song that delves into themes of redemption, healing, and the desire for a renewed connection with the divine. The lyrics are a heartfelt plea to God, reflecting a personal journey of falling, being lifted, and seeking continuous renewal. The song begins with the singer recalling a time when they were found in a state of despair and were lovingly called a child by God, who healed and renewed them. This sets the stage for the recurring theme of seeking divine intervention and healing.
The repetition of phrases like “Olha eu aqui de novo, Pai” (Here I am again, Father) and “me cura de novo” (heal me again) underscores the cyclical nature of human frailty and the constant need for divine grace. The singer acknowledges their fragility and wounds, asking God to once again call them a child and heal the scars left by time. This repetition not only emphasizes the singer’s vulnerability but also their unwavering faith in God’s ability to restore and renew.
The chorus, with its plea for God to “Faz morada” (make a dwelling), symbolizes a deep yearning for God’s presence within the singer’s life. By declaring themselves as God’s house, the singer expresses a desire for a profound and intimate relationship with the divine, where God’s presence is a constant and renewing force. The song’s repetitive structure and earnest lyrics create a powerful atmosphere of devotion and surrender, making it a moving anthem for anyone seeking spiritual renewal and a closer connection with God.
