In time they say old wounds will heal In time they say old wounds will heal Nesta época dizem que velhas feridas vão se curar But time alone would just reveal But time alone would just reveal Mas apenas o tem revelará The measure of my best intent The measure of my best intent A medida de minhas melhores intenções How vainly it would all be spent How vainly it would all be spent Que em vão gastarei tudo Empty boxes Empty boxes Caixas vazias If not for love If not for love Se não fosse por amor My prayer never would be heard My prayer never would be heard Minha oração jamais será ouvida Appeal denied without a word Appeal denied without a word O apelo negado sem uma palavra The throne room of my Father's house The throne room of my Father's house A sala do trono da casa do meu Pai Closed fast to keep me out Closed fast to keep me out Se fechou rapidamente e me mantém do lado de fora No admission No admission Sem permissão If not for love If not for love Se não fosse por amor If not for love the godless would reign If not for love the godless would reign Se não fosse por amor o impío reinaria If not for love any light would be shadowed If not for love any light would be shadowed Se não fosse por amor qualquer luz seria obscurecida But love was strong - revealed a plan But love was strong - revealed a plan Mas o amor era forte - revelou o plano Man's perfect God, God's perfect man Man's perfect God, God's perfect man O perfeito Deus do homem, o perfeito Deus do homem A cross would stand alone refused A cross would stand alone refused Um cruz ficar sozinha seria recusada A Son blessed and not accused A Son blessed and not accused Um filho abençoado e não acusado A Savior never sent A Savior never sent Um salvado nunca seria enviado Blind to the world's lament Blind to the world's lament Cego ao lamento do mundo No forgiveness No forgiveness Sem perdão If not for love If not for love Se não fosse por amor
