En paz

The song 'En paz' by Daniel Calveti is a serene expression of faith and trust in a higher power, which in this case is the Christian God. The lyrics are a testament to the peace and confidence that the singer finds in his relationship with the Lord. The repetitive nature of the chorus, 'En paz me acostaré y así mismo dormiré porque solo tú Señor me haces vivir confiado,' which translates to 'In peace, I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, Lord, make me dwell in safety,' emphasizes the comfort and assurance the singer feels under the protection of God. This refrain is a direct reference to Psalm 4:8 from the Bible, which speaks about lying down in peace and sleeping because the Lord provides safety.

The verses of the song delve into the struggles of fear and anxiety, asking rhetorically who can deliver from these feelings if not the Lord. The questions '¿Quién me libra del temor, quién me quita la ansiedad si no eres tú?' and '¿Quién me abraza con su amor, quién me da de su perdón si no eres tú?' translate to 'Who will deliver me from fear, who will take away my anxiety if not you?' and 'Who will embrace me with love, who will give me their forgiveness if not you?' These lines express a deep reliance on God's love and forgiveness as the only source of true peace and liberation from life's worries.

Daniel Calveti is known for his Christian worship music, and 'En paz' is a clear reflection of his genre. The song's simple structure and heartfelt delivery make it a powerful piece of worship, inviting listeners to find their own peace and confidence in their faith. The song's message is universal for those who seek solace in a higher power, regardless of the specific religious context.
