Nossos Presentes

Our Gifts
Oh present God, our gifts, we offer you.
We bring bread and wine from memory and tradition.
From the eternal covenant, always new in the Christian.
The whole body given for love in communion.
Oh, oh, oh... oh, oh, oh. It's all yours, God of love. (repeat)
The fruits produced in these conquered lands.
The flowers from the gardens of so many occupied houses.
The pains and victories of our journey.
Oh, oh, oh... oh, oh, oh. It's all yours, God of love. (repeat)
We bring a new map of alternative history.
The new humanity, supportive and combative.
Places where hope always lives.
Oh, oh, oh... oh, oh, oh. It's all yours, God of love. (repeat)
In our hearts, the longing for our beloved ones.
In our eyes, so many dreams of a future with more life.
In our feet, the slow march towards the promised land.
Oh, oh, oh... oh, oh, oh. It's all yours, God of love. (repeat)
