Meu Deus
Zilanda Valentin
My God
My God, what incomparable love!
In sending your own son
To suffer forsaken.
Hours of incalculable suffering.
Sad and deplorable picture,
But what salvation he bestowed!
(Chorus)
This picture in our minds
Must be indelible like the radiant light of Jesus
Who gave himself for all sinners!
Immaculate holy body that was mutilated for us.
Like a lamb, he did not complain.
A source of this being sprouted,
Which transmits peace and sweet love!
My God, forgive the great faults
Of those who condemned your beloved son
Without guilt.
Marks that remained on his holy hands
That accurately prove
The great price of forgiveness!
