¡Qué lindo eres!

Walmir Alencar's song "¡Qué lindo eres!" is a deeply spiritual and emotive piece that explores the profound experience of encountering the divine. The lyrics express a sense of awe and gratitude for the opportunity to be in the presence of God. The opening lines, "Que bien, Señor, ir a tu encuentro / Poder llegar / Y adentrarme en tu casa," convey a feeling of joy and reverence at the prospect of entering God's house and being close to Him. This sets the tone for a song that is both a personal testimony and a communal prayer, celebrating the intimate relationship between the believer and the divine.

The song uses the metaphor of a shared meal to illustrate this intimate connection. Phrases like "Sentarme contigo / Y compartir la misma mesa" evoke the image of sitting down with God and sharing a meal, a powerful symbol of fellowship and unity. This metaphor is further enriched by the lines "Admirarte y tocarte / Poder decirte, Dios ¡Qué lindo eres!" which highlight the tangible and emotional aspects of this divine encounter. The repetition of the phrase "¡Qué lindo eres!" serves as a heartfelt exclamation of God's beauty and goodness, reinforcing the emotional depth of the song.

In the second verse, Alencar delves into themes of humility and grace. The lines "Oh, mi Señor, sé que no soy nada / Sin merecer has hecho en mí / Una morada" acknowledge the singer's unworthiness and the grace that has been bestowed upon him. This humility is contrasted with the profound sense of communion described in "Mas al recibirte / Perfecta comunión se crea / Yo en ti, tú en mí," emphasizing the transformative power of divine grace. The song concludes with a reiteration of the phrase "¡Qué lindo eres!" encapsulating the overwhelming sense of gratitude and admiration that defines the entire piece.
