Eu Tenho Um Amigo

I have a friend
By many loved, yet rejected by many as well
In uncertain times, he is my counselor
Loyal companion who has affection for me

The world does not see, the love its light
Does not hear or believe in the story of the cross
But I contemplate him, ruling the universe
Sprouting in my verse, his name is Jesus!

There are many who exchange his friendship
For luxuries, vanities, or superstitions
And when they realize, sometimes it's too late
The love no longer burns
In their hearts

The world does not see, the love its light
Does not hear or believe in the story of the cross
But I contemplate him, ruling the universe
Sprouting in my verse, his name is Jesus!
