Yesterday I wrote
True Love pursues, but never grasps or clings, because it always wants the absolute best for the one being pursued. So Love restrains itself and behaves in such a way as to cause the one being pursued to stop running, turn and actually wholeheartedly embrace Love back.
Because I am interested in learning to speak better Spanish I often play and fall asleep listening to Spanish Christian music (the fact the content is Christian helps narrow the possibilities of what they are singing about). One of my favorites is Roberto Orellana whose voice and style I find simply incredible. He was born in Chile and found Christ while in prison.
One of his songs is entitled Mi Nuevo Amor (My New Love) and I think it describes beautifully how True Love awakens the heart of its Beloved.
If you don’t speak Spanish, no problemo. I have provided the translation. Beyond this enjoy his unique style and incredible voice. And as a bonus, the video is powerful in its own right. No translation necessary. It reminds me how truly blessed we are to be able to worship freely here (so far) in the USA.
Let’s start with the video.
Yo tengo un nuevo amor el corazon me late sin parar hay uno que me ha dicho te amo de verdad Jesús mi amor y mas que amor mi dulce paz I have a new love my heart beats without stopping there is one who has told me I really love you Jesus my love and more than love my sweet peace Yo tengo un nuevo amor jamas imagine poder hallar a aquel que le dio a mi vida una razón para amar Jesús mi amor y mas que amor mi dulce paz I have a new love I never imagined being able to find the one who gave my life a reason to love Jesus my love and more than love my sweet peace Siento que tengo ganas de volar al firmamento gritarle al mundo entero lo que estoy sintiendo que ya encontré mi dulce amor Jesús es toda mi verdad y nunca yo me cansare de repetir hasta el final I feel like I want to fly to the firmament shout to the whole world what I'm feeling that I already found my sweet love Jesus is all my truth and I will never get tired of repeating until the end Que ahora yo tengo un nuevo amor el corazon me late sin parar hay uno que me ha dicho te amo de verdad Jesús mi amor y mas que amor mi dulce paz That now I have a new love, my heart beats without stopping, there is one who has told me I really love you, Jesus, my love, and more than love, my sweet peace. Yo tengo un nuevo amor jamas imagine poder hallar a aquel que le dio a mi vida una razón para amar Jesús mi amor y mas que amor mi dulce paz I have a new love I never imagined being able to find the one who gave my life a reason to love Jesus my love and more than love my sweet peace Amo su voz dulcisima en respuesta cuando llamo sus ojos tiernos hasta el toque de sus manos por siempre suyo quiero ser Jesús es toda mi verdad y nunca yo me cansare de repetir hasta el final I love his sweet voice in response when I call His tender eyes to the touch of his hands forever I want to be yours Jesus is all my truth and I will never get tired of repeating until the end Que ahora yo tengo un nuevo amor el corazon me late sin parar hay uno que me ha dicho te amo de verdad Jesús mi amor y mas que amor mi dulce paz That now I have a new love, my heart beats without stopping, there is one who has told me I really love you, Jesus, my love, and more than love, my sweet peace. Yo tengo un nuevo amor jamas imagine poder hallar a aquel que le dio a mi vida una razón para amar Jesús mi amor y mas que amor mi dulce paz I have a new love I never imagined being able to find the one who gave my life a reason to love Jesus my love and more than love my sweet peace
“I never imagined being able to find the one who gave my life a reason to love.”
Wow very powerful!
