O Velho Homem

While the world runs to nowhere
Living here on Earth is common
Foolish is the man who thinks God doesn't want him well
He gets lost looking for direction
The voice of Jesus Christ speaks to the heart
And when the road ends, the answer already comes

All the time Christ is
Opening his arms to help
The light of salvation you already see
The burden tends to increase
There is the cross to carry
Suffering is greater for those who do not believe

Difficult is to forget the old man
To renounce the old nature
But when man believes that God is everything
It becomes so easy to realize
That there is no happier life to live
