1)Salvador is a Christian band that blends their Latin heritage and contemporary pop songwriting. The band formed in 1999 in Austin, Texas.

Over the past 10 years in which Salvador has toured throughout the country and at times outside of it, a fan base began to rapidly grow. According to the members of the group, no matter how huge the fan base gets, they are still surprised and grateful to be a part of that environment, and even more surprising to them is that their fans keep coming and supporting.

Not only has growth been among the fans, but also within the group as well. Adding to the existing members of Nic Gonzales (lead vocals and guitar), his cousin Josh Gonzales (bass and background vocals), Chris Bevins (co-producer and keyboards), and Jared Solis (trombone and saxophone), the band completes its family with brass man Edwin Santiago (trumpet and flugelhorn), Ben Cordonero (drummer) and Robert Vilera (percussionist) . Nic Gonzales calls the three men Salvador’s “valuable acquisitions.” Cordonero, a Nicaraguan from Miami, not only plays the drums but also traditional Latin percussion such as congas, timbales and bongos. Santiago is a Boricua – of Puerto Rican decent -who brings not only amazing talent but an unending work ethic as well. And Vilera, an established session player who’s worked with Marc Anthony, Gloria Estefan and Celia Cruz (to name a few) also brings more of the sonido Latina to the music and, ultimately, their fan base.

What is it that sets this record apart from other Christian albums and even Salvador’s previous ones? Three words: horns and percussion. According to the producers of album 'Dismiss the Mystery', there is a greater reliance on horns and percussion to take an already existing tapestry of excellent vocals, rhythm and strings, to a higher level of excellence creating nuances and gravitas that exudes a timeless capability.

Regarding the future of Salvador’s ability to keep creating in the face of growth, change and an unstable marketplace, one thing is for certain: after seven years of hard work culminating with Dismiss the Mystery, it is impossible to dismiss their undeniable musicianship, and the only mystery left at this point is what can they possibly do next to top it.

~Con Poder (August 12, 2003)

La Palabra
Salvador Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

En el desierto hay siempre soledad
No hay calor, ni amor, ni verdad
Es un lugar donde uno pierde la razon
Y por la noche se te enfria el corazon
Fue una palabra escrita en la arena
Lo que decia se grabo en mi corazon
Encontre, una fuente serena
Me lave de mis penas

Y naci al amor

Vivia un sueño que me tenia cansado
Era un sueño de pena y dolor
La melodia mas preciosa en todo el mundo
Es tu palabra poderosa mi Senor

Te tengo bien grabado en mi corazon
Y no concibo este mundo sin tu amor
Esta palabra que vi escrita en la arena
Me alivio de mis penas
Y naci al amor

Cuando se va la esperanza
Tu palabra me da fuerza

No nos dejes caer en la tentacion
Mas libranos de todo mal

La paz, lo que me faltaba
Porque no te conocia

Padre nuestro que estas en el cielo
Santificado sea tu nombre

Cuando se va la esperanza
Tu palabra me da fuerza

Hagase tu voluntad asi en la tierra
Como en el cielo

Overall Meaning

The song La Palabra by Salvador talks about the transformative power of faith and the word of God. The first stanza describes the desert as a place of solitude, devoid of love and truth, and where one can lose their reason. However, the singer finds a message written in the sand that speaks to their heart and shows them the way to a serene fountain where they can be cleansed of their sorrows and become reborn to love. This spiritual awakening gives them the strength to overcome their past pains and face the world with renewed hope.

In the second stanza, the singer describes the burden of a dream that caused them sadness and pain. But through the grace of God's word, they found relief from their afflictions and were filled with a sense of peace and love that they could not find elsewhere. The chorus proclaims the importance of God's word in times of hopelessness, stating that it gives them the strength to carry on.

Overall, La Palabra is a song that celebrates the power of faith to heal emotional wounds and bring hope to those in despair. The desert serves as a metaphor for the barrenness of life without God, and the singer's journey towards the fountain represents their struggle to find meaning and purpose through faith.
