Senhor, Quando Te Vejo

Lord, when I see you in the sacrament of communion
I feel the sky opening and a light hitting me
Cooling my head and warming my heart

Lord, thanks and praises be given at all times
I want to praise you in pain, in joy, and in suffering
And if in the midst of tribulation, I forget about you
Illuminate my darkness with your light

Jesus, source of mercy flowing from the temple
Jesus, the son of the queen
Jesus, divine face of man
Jesus, human face of God

I often come to your house, my lord
Sad, dejected, needing love
But after communion, your house is my heart
Then I feel heaven within me

I don't commune because I deserve it, I know, oh my lord
I commune because I need you
When I missed mass, I was running away from myself and from you
But now I have returned, please accept me

Jesus, source of mercy flowing from the temple
Jesus, the son of the queen
Jesus, divine face of man
Jesus, human face of God
