| What will it take to keep you from Jesus
| ¿Qué se necesita para alejarte de Jesús?
|
| Keep you from heeding His call
| Evita que prestes atención a su llamado
|
| The simple excuse of a heart that is hard
| La simple excusa de un corazón que es duro
|
| A reason that’s nothing at all
| Una razón que no es nada en absoluto
|
| And there was a man who was owned by his money
| Y había un hombre que era propiedad de su dinero
|
| He was as rich as could be
| Era tan rico como podía ser
|
| But deep in his heart was a voice that was crying
| Pero en lo profundo de su corazón había una voz que lloraba
|
| Telling him he wasn’t free
| Diciéndole que no era libre
|
| When he questioned the Master
| Cuando cuestionó al Maestro
|
| Concerning his problem
| En cuanto a su problema
|
| The answer took his breath away
| La respuesta le quitó el aliento.
|
| For his money had come to mean more than his soul
| Porque su dinero había llegado a significar más que su alma
|
| Forever would stand in his way
| Siempre se interpondría en su camino

|
| The simple excuse of a heart that is hard
| La simple excusa de un corazón que es duro
|
| A reason that’s nothing at all
| Una razón que no es nada en absoluto
|
| And how long before you stop with your reasons
| ¿Y cuánto tiempo antes de que te detengas con tus razones?
|
| Take your defenses away
| Quita tus defensas
|
| It’s only a lie that keeps you from following
| Es solo una mentira que te impide seguir
|
| Don’t let it stand in your way
| No dejes que se interponga en tu camino
|
| So many excuses and so many lies
| Tantas excusas y tantas mentiras
|
| Are blocking the Light and the Way
| Están bloqueando la Luz y el Camino
|
| But the final decision to follow the Lord
| Pero la decisión final de seguir al Señor
|
| Can shatter and blow them away
| Puede romperlos y volarlos
|
| Once there was one who was lame in his body
| Había una vez uno que estaba cojo de su cuerpo
|
| Sick in his body and soul
| Enfermo en su cuerpo y alma
|
| Though he didn’t know all the facts about Jesus
| Aunque no sabía todos los hechos acerca de Jesús
|
| He knew that he longed to be whole
| Sabía que anhelaba estar completo
|
| So with some of his friends
| Así que con algunos de sus amigos
|
| He went seeking and found him
| Fue a buscarlo y lo encontró
|
| So many stood in their way
| Tantos se interpusieron en su camino
|
| So they tore through the roof
| Así que rasgaron el techo
|
| And they lowered him down
| Y lo bajaron
|
| For nothing could keep him away | Porque nada podría mantenerlo alejado |
