Lyrics and translation JOSE GOMEZ - Yo Soy El

Yo Soy El

En la hora de su angustia en el huerto donde oro:
Oh, padre, quítame esta copa
Si hay otra solución
Su plegaria fue un gemido,
Su sudor se ensangrentó.
Oh, Padre, ven prepárame,
Yo haré tu voluntad.
Y la turba le vino a tomar
Pues Judas lo traicionó,
Con un beso en la mejilla
Al cordero entregó
Y al preguntar quién era Cristo
Simplemente respondió.
Y la turba al suelo cayó
Cuando él le contestó

Contestó: yo soy
El que quieren soy
La verdad yo soy.
Yo soy él.

Me encontraron ya
Si vienen por mi
El camino soy
Yo soy él.

En la hora de mi angustia,
En el huerto de mi ser,
Las tinieblas me roderón y yo iba a perecer
Y miré yo mi pecado,
Mi corazón desfalleció:
Oh padre, ven prepárame:
Yo haré tu voluntad.

Y miré mi vana religión
A los pobres rechacé
Y a tantos huerfanitos que yo nunca socorrí
Y dije, oh, ven oh Dios y sáname
Tu palabra espada es.
Y, cuando yo clame con fe
Su voz cambio mi ser.

I Am

In the hour of his anguish in the garden where he prayed:
Oh, Father, take this cup from me
If there is another way
His prayer was a moan,
His sweat became as blood.
Oh, Father, come prepare me,
I will do your will.
And the crowd came to take him
For Judas had betrayed him,
With a kiss on the cheek
He delivered the lamb
And when they asked who was Christ
He simply said.
And the crowd fell to the ground
When he answered them

He said, I am
The one you seek
The truth I am.
I am he.

You have found me now
If it is me you seek
The way I am
I am he.

In the hour of my anguish,
In the garden of my being,
The darkness surrounded me and I was about to perish
And I looked at my sin,
My heart began to fail:
Oh, Father, come prepare me:
I will do your will.

And I looked at my vain religion
I rejected the poor
And so many orphans whom I never helped
And I said, oh, come oh God and heal me
Your word is a sword.
And, when I cried out with faith
His voice changed my being.
