Siete Humillaciones
Freddy Rodriguez Lyrics

These lyrics are from the song "Siete Humillaciones" by Freddy Rodriguez. The song explores the themes of humility, sacrifice, and exaltation of Jesus Christ. The lyrics describe how Jesus, despite being equal to God, did not cling to His divine status but instead chose to humble Himself and become a faithful servant in order to understand and help mankind.

The first verse states, "Siendo igual a Dios, no te aferraste" which translates to "Being equal to God, you did not cling." This highlights the humility of Jesus, who willingly let go of His divine nature and emptied Himself for the sake of humanity. He became a humble servant who never failed to help others, just like me, in order to understand the human experience.

The chorus emphasizes the significance of Jesus' humility by stating, "Fue la humildad de un cordero que te llevó a morir, fue la humildad de un cordero que te llevó a la cruz," which means "It was the humility of a lamb that led you to die, it was the humility of a lamb that led you to the cross." This portrays Jesus as a sacrificial lamb, whose humble submission to the cross ultimately led to His death. His act of selflessness and sacrifice is seen as a powerful expression of humility.

The following verses continue to highlight the exaltation of Jesus. It is stated, "Por eso El Padre te exaltó, tu nombre grande es, toda rodilla se doblará ante tu majestad," meaning "Therefore, the Father exalted you, your name is great, every knee will bow before your majesty." These lines reveal that because of His humility and sacrifice, Jesus is exalted by God the Father. His name is to be revered and every knee will bow in acknowledgment of His majesty.

The final repetition of the chorus reinforces the notion that Jesus Christ is the Lord, stating, "Y cada lengua confesará, Jesús es el Señor, Jesús es el Señor." This affirms that every tongue will confess and proclaim that Jesus is the Lord.

In summary, the lyrics of "Siete Humillaciones" convey the message of Jesus' humility and sacrificial love that led Him to the cross. He willingly relinquished His divinity to become a servant and understand humanity. Through His humility, Jesus is exalted by God the Father, and His name will be acknowledged by all. The song serves as a celebratory declaration of Jesus' lordship and calls for everyone to recognize Him as the Lord.
