[INTRO]
Lord I sing for you to heal me from all the wounds caused by the thorny road that life is For all the times the world brought me down
I sing as gratitude for becoming who I am today
Lord, I sing so that you hear all the prayers I make in times of despair
Though I walked through the valley of the shadows of death
I sing for all the stones thrown at me and today I understand that they made me stronger
[FIRST VERSE]
I want my voice to be heard, respected and remembered
May the gift God has given me be enough to cross racial lines
And may everything I preach not be in vain
My faith was my main guide
Love is my main character
My music is inspired by your infinite glory
I grew up and was educated to be much more than a housewife
And today I'm a black woman, breaking barriers
Nothing was easy for me, many fights I lost
In traps created by prejudice, I fell
And even though many times my hope was almost exhausted
Nothing could confuse my mind
'Cause the gift that was given to me can't be taken away
[CHORUS]
And Lord I sing to you
Because I'm being released from the traumas of the little child that still inhabits my heart
I sing for you to save the innocence stolen from every child who was abused by the evil in the soul of man
I sing for them to free themselves and be able to recover from the sequels left in their lives
Lord I sing to you
For giving me the strength to live the great love I found
Even if he's not good or accepted by everyone
Amid the turbulent moments of this unfair life, he showed me what it's like to love and be loved
[SECOND VERSE]
I fought and I'm still fighting, I know the war on this earth will never end
I had to be strong to face all the times when I felt helpless and alone in the world
All the experiences I was forced to live so young
From the marks left by the man I trusted my heart
For the unhappiness I experienced while growing up and when I matured
How foolish I was to fall so easily into existing evils
How I got lost along the way
But I looked for respect
Me, my body, my story and my life
And I feel at peace knowing that in the end I found your eternal mercy
[CHORUS]
Lord I sing to you
May my voice be an eternal prayer for a better world
May all my mistakes be seen as learnings
That I left a great legacy
May I be remembered for my moments of glory and not those of bitterness
Lord I sing so my song will be heard for years and years
And I am eternal in the memories.
