Текст и перевод песни Bobby van Jaarsveld - Sion

Sion

Voor jy al hier was, het jy lankal bestaan
Voor God gespeel en in Sy Hemel gedans
Hy roep 'n naam oor jou wat jy sal hou
Daar op my knieë het ek Die Vader gevra
Om my te help dat ek dit beter verstaan
Toe gee Hy my 'n seun ek's bly dis jy
En nou's jy hier en 'n pa se hart
Is gebore hier in my
Want ek is lief vir jou
Jy is my seun ek dink die wêreld van jou
Ek is jou pa en ek is altyd by jou
Ek is daar vir jou
Tot die dood sal ek baklei vir jou
Dis my gebed vir jou dat jy dit sal wees
Wat God gedroom het oor jou
Daar is 'n storie wat geskryf is oor jou
Solank jy onthou
Jy's my rots, my seun, my trots, my berg Sion
Net soos 'n pa so sal die seun dit verstaan
Deur die geslagte sal jou naam vooruit gaan
Gesëende van God vrede vir jou
Toe ek jou sien het ek myself weer gevind
Ek is gebore deur die oë van my kind
Ek het my siel se roep in jou gekry ...
En nou's jy hier en 'n pa se hart
Is gebore hier in my
Dis my gebed vir jou dat jy dit sal wees
Wat God gedroom het oor jou
Daar is 'n storie wat geskryf is oor jou
Solank jy onthou
Jy's my rots, my seun, my trots, my berg Sion
Ek bid dat jy altyd sal weet dat ek
Lief vir jou is en dat God jou hand vashou
Hy is deel van jou
Want Hy is lief vir jou
Jy is Sy seun Hy dink die wêreld van jou
Hy is jou pa en Hy is altyd by jou
Hy is daar vir jou
Tot die dood het Hy baklei vir jou
Dis my gebed dat jy
Jy dit sal wees wat God gedroom het oor jou
Daar is 'n storie wat geskryf is oor jou
Solank jy dit weet
Jy's my rots, my seun, my trots, my berg Sion
My seun my trots
Jy's my berg Sion ...

Sion

Long before you were here, you were still in existence
Playing with God, dancing in his heaven
He calls your name over you which you will hold
There on my knees I asked the Father
To help me that I might understand it better
Then he gave me a son I am glad it is you
And now you are here and the heart of a father
Is born here in me
Because I love you
You are my son I think the world of you
I am your father and I am always by you
I am there for you
To the death I will fight for you
It is my prayer for you that you will be
What God dreamed over you
There is a story written about you
As long as you remember
You are my rock, my son, my pride, my mountain Sion
Just like a father so shall the son understand it
Throughout the generations your name will go forward
Blessed by God peace to you
When I saw you I found myself again
I was born through the eyes of my child
In you I received the calling of my sole ...
And now you are here and the heart of a father
Is born here in me
It is my prayer for you that you will be
What God dreamed over you
There is a story written about you
As long as you remember
You are my rock, my son, my pride, my mountain Sion
I pray that you will always know that I
Love you and that God holds your hand
He is part of you
Because he loves you
You are his son he thinks the world of you
He is your father and he is always with you
He is there for you
To the death because he fought for you
It is my prayer that you
You will be what God dreamed of you
There is a story written about you
As long as you know it
You are my rock, my son, my pride, my mountain Sion
My son my pride
You are my mountain Sion ...
