Lyrics
Verse 1
Aún sin poder tu santo rostro contemplar
Y aunque tu trono arriba en los cielos
Lejos parece estar...
Aún sin poder la herida de tus manos tocar
Hay en mi alma un gozo profundo
Que hace mi fe vibrar
Chorus
Cristo yo creo en ti
Yo siempre creeré en ti
Aunque no puede verte Señor
Eres real en mi corazón
Cristo yo creo en ti
Por siempre creeré en ti
Aunque se niegue el mundo a creer
No dejaré mi gozo perder
Yo creo en ti
Verse 2
Enviado del cielo
Eres aquel escogido por Dios
Eres el unico y cierto camino
Hasta su corazón
Moriste en la cruz
Resucitaste y hoy vives en mí
Venciste al pecado y la muerte
¡Y ahora soy libre al fin!
Outro
Oh, oh, oh...
¡Creo en ti, creo en ti, Señor!

Meaning & Inspiration
Cristo, Yo Creo en Ti is a Spanish-language song of faith in the risen Christ. The first verse says that even without being able to see His holy face, with His throne seeming far away in heaven, and even without touching the wounds in His hands, there is a deep joy in the soul that makes faith vibrate. The chorus declares "Cristo, yo creo en ti," promising to believe always and in spite of the world refusing to believe.
The second verse describes Him as sent from heaven, chosen by God, the only true way, who died on the cross, rose again and lives in the singer, conquering sin and death and making the singer free at last. The final lines repeat "Creo en ti, creo en ti, Señor." The themes follow John 20:29 on believing without seeing, 1 Peter 1:8 on rejoicing in the unseen Christ, and Galatians 5:1 on freedom. The repeated declaration gives the song a confident, joyful tone.
