Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Eres Dios sin principio
Creador infinito
Tú nos viste aquí
Cuando llamaste la tierra
Y el mundo a existencia

Eres Dios de victoria
La historia es tu historia
Tú quien fuiste y es
Y quien por siempre será
Viviré por tu gloria

Y correré
Arde fuego en mi corazón
Nada puede apagar tu amor
Mi Dios la Gloria te daré
Jesus

Eres Dios, somos libres
En nosotros tú vives
Tú nos viste aquí
Antes de resucitar
Y entregarnos tu promesa

Y correré
Arde fuego en mi corazón
Nada puede apagar tu amor
Mi Dios la Gloria te daré

Y correré
Con mi vida te alabaré
Y tu nombre famoso haré
Mi Dios la gloria te daré
Jesús
Te alabare
Oh Dios Gloria te doy
Eres digno de alabar

Y correré
Arde fuego en mi corazón
Nada puede apagar tu amor
Mi Dios la Gloria te daré

Y correré
Con mi vida te alabaré
Y tu nombre famoso haré
Mi Dios la gloria te daré




Jesús

"You are God without beginning
Infinite creator
You saw us here
When you called the earth
And the world into existence

Charlie Haden's Song of the United Front was originally composed by Hanns Eisler, a German composer who fled from Nazi Germany and settled in the United States. The lyrics were written by Bertolt Brecht, a German poet and playwright who was Eisler's collaborator in the communist movement. Haden's version of the song is an instrumental take on the original vocal piece.
