OH MARAVILHOSA CRUZ
versão
de um calipso vivo
"Quando examino a Maravilhosa Cruz"
por Isaac Watts e Ralph Merrifield
Quando
examino a maravilhosa cruz
Na
qual o Príncipe de Glória morreu,
Meu
maior ganho como perda eu pus,
E
com desprezo, todo orgulho meu.
Coro:
Oh
a maravilhosa cruz (Oh a maravilhosa cruz)
Fonte
de vida pra mim
Jesus
pagou o preço (Jesus pagou o preço)
Livrando
este pecador!
Proíba,
Senhor, que venha me gabar,
Salvo
na cruz de Cristo, meu Deus!
Todas
coisas vãs eu venha colocar,
Eu
ao Seu sangue sacrificar.
(coro)
Veja
de Sua cabeça, Suas mãos, Seus pés,
Tristeza
e amor se fundem!
Amor
e tristeza houve tal encontro?
Ou
espinhos tão rica coroa compõem?
(coro
2x)
Era
todo reino de minha natureza,
Que é um
tributo longe de pequeno,
Amor
tão sublime, tão divino,
Exige
minha alma, minha vida, meu tudo.
(coro
2x)
Ele
este pecador livrou, oh
Ele
este pecador livrou, oh
Ele este pecador livrou, oh!!!?

OH THE WONDROUS CROSS
lively
calypso version of
"When I Survey The Wondrous Cross"
by Isaac Watts e Ralph Merrifield
When
I survey the wondrous cross
On which the Prince of Glory died,
My richest gain I count but loss,
And pour contempt on all my pride.
Chorus:
Oh the wondrous cross (Oh the wondrous cross)
Source of life to me
Jesus paid the cost (Jesus paid the cost)
To set this sinner free !
Forbid
it, Lord, that I should boast,
Save in the
cross
of Christ, my God!
All the vain things that charm me most,
I sacrifice them to His blood.
(chorus)
See
from His head, His hands, His feet,
Sorrow and love flow mingled down!
Did e'er such love and sorrow meet?
Or thorns compose so rich a crown?
(chorus
2x)
Were
the whole realm of nature mine,
That were a
tribute
far too small,
Love so amazing, so divine,
Demands my soul, my life, my all.
(chorus 2x)
He
set this sinner free, oh
He
set this sinner free, oh
He set this sinner free!!!
