Lembra, Senhor

When I can't hear you
And my cries don't change your silence
It's clouds that hide the sun
And make the day as dark as night

Then I remember you can't forget me
If my name is carved in your hands
Even if I still can't see
I know you'll rise up for me

Remember, Lord
You swore your love
And nothing can change what you feel for me
Not even my sins

Remember, Lord
And show your signs once more
And they'll know you're still the same God

Who revealed your glory to Israel
And out of love opened the sea and stopped the sun
I know you'll do the same for me

He’s still the same, dear
Can a mother
Forget the child she’s nursing?
So that she doesn’t care for the child of her womb?

But even if that mother were to forget him
I will never forget you, says the Lord
Look, I have you engraved on the palm of my hands
He has you engraved on the palm of his hands, dear
Every time he stretches out his hand to bless

He looks and your name is written there
He doesn’t forget any of his own
He didn’t forget Joseph after years in that prison
He didn’t forget his people after years in Egypt
He was able to part the sea for his people

The God who was able to make the sun stand still
The God who was able to make the shadow of the sun retreat
He can move the earth
He can stop time for your sake
If you believe that, then cry out to him
Go to court with him
Go to court with him, oh

Oh, rise up, dear
Rise up, rise up, rise up
Lift your hands to him
Get your God’s attention and say
Remember, Lord! Remember, Lord!

Remember, Lord
You swore your love
And nothing can change what you feel for me
Not even my sins

Remember, Lord
Show your signs once more
And they'll know
That you're still the same God

Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Your love hasn’t changed
He’s still the same
He’s still the same
