Jesus Christ

Jesus Cristo foi um homem que viajou pela terra,
Jesus Christ was a man that traveled through the land
Um carpinteiro honesto e corajoso
A carpenter true and brave
Ele disse aos ricos que doassem sua riqueza aos pobres
He said to the rich give your goods to the poor
Então, mataram a Jesus Cristo
And they laid Jesus Christ in the grave

Ele se dirigiu aos doentes, aos pobres,
He went to the sick and he went to the poor
Aos famintos e aos fracos
And he went to the hungry and the lame
E disse que os mansos herdariam a Terra
And he said that the meek would inherit the whole world
Então, mataram a Jesus Cristo
And they laid Jesus Christ in the grave

Certo dia, Jesus parou à porta de um homem rico
One day Jesus stopped at a rich man?s door
"O que devo fazer para ser salvo", disse o homem
What must I do to be saved
"Doe toda sua riqueza aos pobres", disse Jesus,
Take all you own and give it to the poor
E então, mataram a Jesus Cristo
And they laid Jesus Christ in the grave

Quando o amor dos pobres torna-se ira
When the love of the poor shall one day turn to hate
E a paciência dos trabalhadores se esgota
When the patience of the workers give away
Seria melhor aos ricos que jamais tivessem nascido,
Would be better for the rich if they never been born
Então, eles mataram a Jesus Cristo
So they laid Jesus Christ in the grave

Quando Jesus veio à cidade, e foi rodeado pelos trabalhadores
When Jesus came to town all the working folks around
Que acreditaram nele
Believed what he did say
Mas banqueiros e pregadores o pregaram na cruz,
But bankers and preachers nailed him to the cross
E mandaram Jesus Cristo para o túmulo
And they laid Jesus Christ in the grave

Bem, as pessoas ouviram sobre sua morte e prenderam o fôlego
Well the people held their breath when they heard about his death
E todos se perguntavam por que
And everybody wondered why
Lá estavam o senhores, soldados e homens da lei
Was the landlord and soldiers lawmen there had hired
Que mataram Jesus Cristo
That nailed Jesus Christ in the sky

Nós também mataríamos Jesus Cristo, Senhor, Senhor,
We would lay Jesus Christ in the grave Lord Lord
Nós o mandaríamos para o túmulo
We would lay Jesus Christ in the grave
E se Jesus voltasse a pregar hoje como o fez na Galiléia,
And if Jesus preached today like he preached in Galilee
Nós mandaríamos Jesus Cristo para o túmulo
We would lay Jesus Christ in his grave
