Lamentos do Senhor (Povo Meu, Que Te Fiz Eu?)
Eugênio Jorge
Laments of the Lord (My People, What Have I Done to You?)
My people, what have I done to you?
They say I made you sad
Why did you hand me over to death?
In what way did I fail you?
I made you leave Egypt
Fed you with manna
Prepared a beautiful land for you
You, the cross for your King
Holy God
Mighty God
Immortal God
Have mercy on us
Holy God
Mighty God
Immortal God
Have mercy on us, oh
I planted you as a beautiful vineyard
You planted the spear in me
I gave you sweet waters
You were bitter until the end
I scourged Egypt for you
Killed the firstborn
But you scourged me
Handed over your own King
Holy God
Mighty God
Immortal God
Have mercy on us
Holy God
Mighty God
Immortal God
Have mercy on us, oh
I opened the Red Sea for you
You pierced my heart
You took me to Pilate
I led you by the hand
Only on the cross did you exalt me
When I exalted you in everything
What more could I have done?
In what way did I fail you?
Holy God
Mighty God
Immortal God
Have mercy on us
Holy God
Mighty God
Immortal God
Have mercy on us
