Alex Campos - Enséñame A Amar Lyrics
Lyrics
Soy aprendiz de tus caricias
Soy resultado de tu amor
Me enamore de tu sonrisa
De tu inocencia y libertad
Me enamore de aquella niña
Que con su vida me abrazó
Pinto en mí su poesía
Un lienzo en blanco en mi creo
Tu voz me sacia cuando callo
Puedo escuchar la voz de Dios
Tengo tanto que aprenderte
Enséñale a mi corazón
Enséñame amar
Y a contemplarte en el silencio de tus ojos
A no olvidar que eres tu mi fiel tesoro
A recordarme que no soy, si tu no estas
Tengo la vida para amarte
No fue en vano tu llegar
Hoy me aferro a la promesa
Que el mismo Dios nos sostendrá
Serás por siempre mi princesa
La reina de este nuestro hogar
Por siempre yo seré tan tuyo
El que por siempre te amara
Enséñame amar
Y a contemplarte en el silencio de tus ojos
A no olvidar que eres tu mi fiel tesoro
A recordarme que no soy, si tu no estas
Enséñame amar
Y a descubrir un sol día tras día
A construir aquello que dura una vida
Hasta la muerte ser tu amante y tu alegría
Hoy te vuelvo a recordar
Que no me iré aquí estaré noche y día
Aunque el invierno se prolongue y se repita
No tengas miedo aquí estaré
Mi niña mía

Meaning & Inspiration
Alex Campos's "Enséñame A Amar," released on March 3, 2017, as part of the album *Momentos*, is a profound plea for divine instruction in the art of loving. This song delves deep into the human yearning to understand and embody a love that transcends our natural inclinations, a love that originates from God Himself. The central message is not about romantic love as often portrayed, but rather the Christ-like, sacrificial, and unconditional love that we are called to as followers of Jesus. Campos articulates a desire to be taught how to love not just our neighbors, but even those who are difficult, those who have wronged us, mirroring the very essence of God's boundless grace. This echoes the teachings found in scriptures like Matthew 5:44, where Jesus commands us to "Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you." The song is a prayerful aspiration, recognizing our inherent inability to consistently manifest such pure love without divine intervention. It’s a confession of human frailty, a testament to the fact that true love, the kind that edifies and transforms, is a gift and a practice cultivated through surrender. This aligns with the Apostle John’s declaration in 1 John 4:19, "We love because he first loved us." The plea for God to teach this love is essentially an invitation for the Holy Spirit to work in and through us, shaping our hearts to reflect the perfect love described in 1 Corinthians 13:4-7: "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres." Campos, through this powerful song, invites listeners to join him in this humble pursuit, to seek God's wisdom in learning to love as He loves, transforming our interactions and relationships into reflections of His divine nature, ultimately fostering a deeper connection with Him and with one another.
