A Paz Que Eu Anelo
Luiz de Carvalho
The Peace I Yearn For
Jesus life is a mystery
And all I want I will still have
I sing in peace, I calm down
In light I guide myself, faith will not die
I know well the journey is long
And the heavy cross wounds my shoulders
Heaven is all I want
Peace that I yearn for
To live in heaven with God!
Jesus your divine light warms and illuminates
What sweet communion!
Your light is the mirror, the Bible the counsel
It is my redemption
And your voice is so gentle
Oh! Incomparable voice, flame of forgiveness
You are the wonderful light, powerful lens
You are God in the heart
Jesus, you are the one who teaches me
Also the one who enlightens me
It is the light that the father gave me
Jesus, by your divine power accept this hymn
I sing more of you
Jesus, I ask on my knees
Answer my plea, come help me
I will say your name once again
Jesus, you are my king, with you I will reign
I will say your name once again
Jesus, you are my king, with you I will reign
