Milagre No Mar

Bruna Karla retells the storm-walking scene from Matthew almost scene by scene in "Milagre No Mar" (Miracle At Sea) — "já se fazia noite e lá estavam eles em alto mar, vento contrário soprava," night had fallen and there they were on the open sea, a contrary wind was blowing — before naming the disciples' first, frightened guess: "'é um fantasma', pensaram," "it's a ghost," they thought.

"Mas Sua voz soou em meio às ondas, viram que era o Mestre," but His voice sounded in the midst of the waves, they saw it was the Master, answers their fear directly, and Peter's bold, uncertain request follows immediately: "'Mestre, eu quero ir ao Teu encontro'," "Master, I want to come to meet You."

The chorus is Jesus' own answer, expanded into instruction — "então vem, saia deste barco, venha passo a passo, vamos caminhar," then come, get out of this boat, come step by step, let's walk — and "se a fé te faltar, eu te estendo a mão, pra te pôr de pé," if your faith fails you, I extend my hand to set you on your feet, answers the story's real danger, sinking, before it happens rather than after. The closing line, "e o mar, chão para os teus pés," and the sea, ground for your feet, ends the song letting the water itself become solid under an obedient step.
