Gateway Worship - Lindo Lyrics
Lyrics
Aqui, em tua presen?a
Quero me render e me entregar
Motiva??es e pesares
Tudo deixo em Teu altar
S? quero esperar sempre aos Teus p?s
S? quero habitar em quem tu ?s
Lindo, lindo
E eu nem sei como expressar
Lindo, Lindo
Tu ?s t?o lindo pra mim
Aqui, em tua presen?a
Eu n?o temerei me quebrantar
Lavar Teus p?s com meu chorar
Tudo o que eu sou vou derramar
S? quero esperar sempre aos Teus p?s
s? quero habitar em quem Tu ?s
Lindo, lindo
E eu nem sei como expressar
Lindo, Lindo
Tu ?s t?o lindo pra mim
Lindo, lindo
E eu nem sei como expressar
Lindo, Lindo
Tu ?s t?o lindo pra mim
Santo, Santo, Santo
Tu ?s, Tu ?s
Santo, Santo, Santo
Tu ?s, Tu ?s
Santo, Santo, Santo
Tu ?s, Tu ?s
Santo, Santo, Santo
Tu ?s, Tu ?s
Lindo, lindo
E eu nem sei como expressar
Lindo, Lindo
Tu ?s t?o lindo pra mim
Lindo, lindo
E eu nem sei como expressar
Lindo, Lindo
Tu ?s t?o lindo pra mim

12. Lindo - Gateway Worship - Diante do Trono Glória a Deus
Meaning & Inspiration
"Lindo," presented by Gateway Worship alongside Diante do Trono and released on May 15, 2012, as part of the "Glória a Deus" project, stands as a profound declaration of surrender and adoration. From its opening phrases, the song immediately draws listeners into a sacred space, inviting them to lay down every burden and motivation at the foot of the cross. The heart of the worshiper yearns to simply wait at His feet and dwell in His very being, reflecting a posture of complete reliance and devotion. This initial surrender resonates deeply with the call in Romans 12:1-2 to present our bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God, acknowledging that true worship begins with a yielded spirit, letting go of personal agendas and anxieties to rest in the divine presence.
The core message powerfully unfolds with the repeated declaration, "Lindo, lindo, e eu nem sei como expressar" (Beautiful, beautiful, and I don't even know how to express it), emphasizing the ineffable glory and splendor of God. This sentiment mirrors the psalmist's longing to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord in His temple (Psalm 27:4), recognizing that God's intrinsic beauty is beyond human articulation. It's a beauty that captivates the soul, leaving the worshiper speechless in its magnitude. The phrase "Tu és tão lindo pra mim" (You are so beautiful to me) then grounds this grand truth in a deeply personal experience, acknowledging that this transcendent beauty is not just an abstract concept but a tangible, life-altering reality for the individual believer. It speaks to an intimate encounter with God where His loveliness is not merely observed but profoundly felt and cherished.
As the song progresses, it delves into an even deeper layer of vulnerability and devotion. The lyrics, "Aqui, em tua presença, eu não temerei me quebrantar, lavar Teus pés com meu chorar" (Here, in your presence, I will not fear to break myself, to wash Your feet with my tears), evoke powerful biblical imagery. This brings to mind the woman in Luke 7 who, in an act of profound repentance and love, washed Jesus' feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair. It’s a testament to the safety and acceptance found in God's presence, where one can be utterly vulnerable, pouring out "tudo o que eu sou vou derramar" (all that I am I will pour out). This is not just emotional expression but a complete emptying of self, a devotion that holds nothing back, finding freedom and wholeness in total submission to the Divine.
The worship reaches its pinnacle with the powerful transition to "Santo, Santo, Santo, Tu és, Tu és." This declaration of holiness is a profound echo of heavenly worship described in both Isaiah 6 and Revelation 4, where seraphim and living creatures ceaselessly proclaim God’s perfect, set-apart nature. It connects God's beauty directly to His holiness, reminding us that His loveliness is not merely aesthetic but rooted in His pure, righteous, and majestic character. This segment elevates the personal adoration to a corporate, cosmic awe, recognizing that the one who is "lindo" is also ultimately "santo" – worthy of all reverence and praise. The song beautifully intertwines these attributes, affirming that the beauty we perceive is an emanation of His perfect holiness, inviting us to join the heavenly chorus in acknowledging His unrivaled majesty and purity. "Lindo" ultimately serves as an anthem of profound personal and communal worship, calling every heart to surrender, gaze upon, and declare the inexpressible beauty and unblemished holiness of God.
