Songs of truth, in espanol

This first one is called "Estoy Aqui" which means "Here I Am" or "I Am Here."  It refers to Christ, God, the Holy Spirit - all right here for us and with us.  The song itself talks about hard seasons in life and not forgetting that whether or not we feel God's presence He has promised never to leave us or forsake us. My favorite lines: "Si quieren traicionarte lo usaré para tu bien, si quieren engañarte lo usaré para tu bien, si quieren hacerte daño lo usaré para tu bien, porque a los que me aman todo le obra para bien."  Roughly translated that means: If they want to betray you, I'll use it for your good.  If they want to trick you, I will use it for your good.  If they want to hurt you, I will use it for your good because I will work all things together for the good of those who love me."  That is a promise God makes to us.  


This song is called "Hablame de Jesus" which means "Talk to me about Jesus."  It basically is sung from the point of view of someone who is wondering about Jesus, what He did for them, what the cross is all about.  My favorite line is this one: El que se dice llamar cristiano por que me tratas con desprecio y no me tratas como hermano?...si tu quieres que alguien escuche el mensaje que tu les prediques pues primero tienes que vivirlo...no me hables de condenacion, si ni siquieras me has hablado de la salvacion, de la redencion, y restauracion..."  That translates to "You say you are a Christian but rather than treat me like a brother, you reject me.  If you want someone to listen to your message, live it out, first.  Don't talk to me about condemnation, if you haven't even talked to me about salvation, redemption and restoration."  Amen, right? Amen.  Enjoy.
