Aline Barros - Depois Da Cruz Lyrics
Lyrics
Antes da cruz, estava condenado
Eu carregava o peso do pecado
Até que Deus me concedeu
A chance de ser regenerado
Antes da cruz, estava separado
O véu ainda não tinha se rasgado
De um lado, eu
Do outro, Deus
Mas pela cruz fomos aproximados
Depois da cruz do Salvador
Mudou a história de um pecador
Que era eu, longe de Deus
Mas pela Graça salvação concedeu
Depois da cruz do Salvador
Os sonhos mortos de um sonhador
Que era eu, longe de Deus
Mas pelo Seu favor meus sonhos reviveu
Antes da cruz, estava condenado
Eu carregava o peso do pecado
Até que Deus me concedeu
A chance de ser regenerado
Antes da cruz, estava separado
O véu ainda não tinha se rasgado
De um lado, eu
Do outro, Deus
Mas pela cruz fomos aproximados
Depois da cruz do Salvador
Mudou a história de um pecador
Que era eu, longe de Deus
Mas pela Graça salvação concedeu
Depois da cruz do Salvador
Os sonhos mortos de um sonhador
Que era eu, longe de Deus
Mas pelo Seu favor meus sonhos reviveu
Quando Ele morreu
Eu também morri
Quando Ele reviveu
Eu também revivi
Ooh, ooh!
Ooh, ooh!
Quando Ele venceu, eu também venci
Ele subiu ao Céu, eu também vou subir
Eu vou, eu vou subir
Depois da cruz do Salvador
Mudou a história de um pecador
Que era eu, longe de Deus
Mas pela Graça salvação concedeu
Depois da cruz

Meaning & Inspiration
Aline Barros' "Depois Da Cruz," featured on her 2017 playback album "Acenda a Sua Luz," is a profound declaration of the transformative power found in Christ’s sacrifice. The song doesn't merely describe an event; it immerses the listener in the ultimate victory that follows the crucifixion. Its core message resonates deeply with the biblical narrative of redemption, emphasizing that the cross, while a scene of suffering, became the very foundation of our new life. This is not a song of mere historical recollection, but an active proclamation of an ongoing reality. The story behind this message is as ancient as time itself, rooted in God's plan to reconcile humanity to Himself through Jesus’ atoning work. The lyrics speak to the profound shift from darkness to light, from bondage to freedom, a concept vividly illustrated throughout Scripture. Consider the Apostle Paul's powerful declaration in 2 Corinthians 5:17: "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!" "Depois Da Cruz" echoes this sentiment, portraying the cross not as an end, but as the pivotal point from which new beginnings emerge.
The song masterfully unpacks the theological weight of Christ’s finished work. It’s an invitation to understand that the blood shed on the cross wasn't just a sacrifice for sins, but the very means by which our relationship with God is restored, as highlighted in Ephesians 1:7: "In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace." Barros articulates this truth with an unshakeable conviction, presenting the cross as the supreme demonstration of God's love and mercy. The implication is that the power of sin and death was decisively broken at Calvary, opening the path for believers to live in the fullness of God's grace. This perspective aligns with Colossians 2:13-14, which states, "And when you were buried with him in baptism, you were raised with him through your faith in the power of God, who raised him from the dead. When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made you alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins, having canceled the charge of our legal indebtedness, which stood against us and condemned us; he has taken it away, nailing it to the cross." "Depois Da Cruz" serves as a reminder that every believer can claim this victory, this liberation from the penalty of sin. It’s a powerful affirmation of faith, encouraging listeners to stand firm in the knowledge that through Christ's ultimate sacrifice, spiritual freedom and eternal life are not just possibilities, but present realities for all who believe.
