Translation of the song lyrics Quem era eu - Irmão Lázaro

Quem era eu (original)

Eu vivia humilhado, massacrado
Escravizado.
Quem era eu?
Quem era eu?
Mas o senhor me arrancou com mãos fortes
Do lamaçal do pecado e me deu vida
Quem era eu?
Servo do pecado
Quem era eu?
Escravo maltratado
Quem era eu?
Ovelha perdida
Precisando de Deus
Quem era eu?
Servo do pecado
Quem era eu?
Escravo maltratado
Quem era eu?
Ovelha perdida
Precisando de Deus
O mal aconselhou e eu acreditei
Me deu veneno e iludido eu aceitei
O mal aconselhou e eu acreditei
Me deu veneno e iludido eu aceitei
Eu me droguei, me viciei
Mas o amor de Deus me arrancou dali
E hoje estou aqui
Quem era eu?
Servo do pecado
Quem era eu?
Escravo maltratado
Quem era eu?
Ovelha perdida
Precisando de Deus
Quem era eu?
Servo do pecado
Quem era eu?
Escravo maltratado
Quem era eu?
Ovelha perdida
Precisando de Deus
A droga vem pra matar
A droga vem pra roubar
A droga vem pra destruir
Pra confundir, para iludir
A droga joga filho contra pai
A droga vem pra tirar a paz
Mas Deus me deu vitória
E hoje estou aqui
Você também vai conseguir
Quem era eu?
Servo do pecado
Quem era eu?
Escravo maltratado
Quem era eu?
Ovelha perdida
Precisando de Deus
Quem era eu?
Servo do pecado
Quem era eu?
Escravo maltratado
Quem era eu?
Ovelha perdida
Precisando de Deus
Deus me criou pra marchar
Jeová, Jeová, Jeová
Eu fui gerado pra adorar ao senhor
O criador
Eu só não posso me esquecer de onde Deus me tirou
Não, não
Quem era eu?
Servo do pecado
Quem era eu?
Escravo maltratado
Quem era eu?
Ovelha perdida
Precisando de Deus
Quem era eu?
Servo do pecado
Quem era eu?
Escravo maltratado
Quem era eu?
Ovelha perdida
Precisando de Deus
Quem era eu?
A droga vem pra roubar
A droga vem pra matar
A droga vem pra destruir
Pra confundir, para iludir
A droga joga filho contra pai
A droga vem pra tirar a paz
Mas deus me deu vitória
E hoje estou aqui
Você também vai conseguir
Quem era eu?
Servo do pecado
Quem era eu?
Escravo maltratado
Quem era eu?
Ovelha perdida
Precisando de Deus
Quem era eu?
Servo do pecado
Quem era eu?
Escravo maltratado
Quem era eu?
Ovelha perdida
Precisando de Deus
Quem era eu?
Desce desse salto
Quem era eu?
Fica na humildade meu amado
Quem era eu?
Lembra de onde Deus te tirou, e desce…
Quem era eu?
Servo do pecado
Quem era eu?
Escravo maltratado
Quem era eu?
Ovelha perdida
Precisando de Deus
Quem era eu?
Tira esse rei da barriga meu amado
E coloca no coração
