Aline Barros - Sonda-Me, Usa-Me Lyrics
Lyrics
Sonda-me, Senhor, e me conhece Quebranta o meu coração Transforma-me conforme a Tua palavra E enche-me até que em mim se ache só a Ti
Então, usa-me, Senhor Usa-me
Como um farol que brilha à noite Como ponte sobre as águas Como abrigo no deserto Como flecha que acerta o alvo Eu quero ser usado da maneira que te agrade Qualquer hora e em qualquer lugar Eis aqui a minha vida Usa-me, Senhor Usa-me
Sonda-me, Senhor, e me conhece Quebranta o meu coração Transforma-me conforme a Tua palavra E enche-me até que em mim se ache só a Ti
Então Usa-me, Senhor Usa-me
Como um farol que brilha à noite Como ponte sobre as águas Como abrigo no deserto Como flecha que acerta o alvo Eu quero ser usado da maneira que te agrade Qualquer hora e em qualquer lugar Eis aqui a minha vida Usa-me, Senhor Usa-me
Sonda-me Quebranta-me Transforma-me Enche-me E usa-me
Sonda-me Quebranta-me Transforma-me Enche-me E usa-me, Senhor
Sonda-me Quebranta-me Transforma-me Enche-me E usa-me, Senhor

Meaning & Inspiration
Aline Barros's powerful declaration, "Sonda-me, Usa-me," released on March 1, 2013, is far more than a song; it's a profound prayer set to music, an earnest plea for divine scrutiny and utilization. The heart of this piece beats with a desire for spiritual purity and purpose, directly echoing King David’s profound introspection in Psalm 139:23-24: "Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting." Barros’s vocal delivery conveys a deep vulnerability and a yearning for authenticity, inviting listeners into a similar posture of surrender before God. The song articulates a willingness to be examined, not out of fear, but from a place of deep trust in God’s perfect knowledge and transformative power. This willingness to be "sondado" (searched) speaks to the biblical understanding that God’s scrutiny is not punitive but redemptive, as seen in Proverbs 15:3: "The eyes of the Lord are everywhere, keeping watch over the evil and the good." The subsequent request, "Usa-me" (Use me), flows naturally from this posture of submission. It’s a surrender of one’s gifts, talents, and very being to be employed for God’s purposes, much like the Apostle Paul’s exhortation in Romans 12:1: "Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship." The song captures the essence of consecration, a daily commitment to be an instrument in God’s hands, ready to serve wherever and however He wills. It resonates with the prophet Isaiah’s response to God’s call in Isaiah 6:8: "Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, 'Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?' And I said, 'Here am I. Send me!'" "Sonda-me, Usa-me" serves as a potent reminder that true spiritual effectiveness begins with allowing God to refine us internally, ensuring that our actions and intentions are aligned with His will, leading us to a life of purpose and enduring impact for the Kingdom.
