Se Trata De Jesús
Song Meaning
PlanetShakers build the whole song around a repeated title phrase — 'se trata de Jesús' ('it's about Jesus') — stated at the start of nearly every line, refusing to let any other subject share the spotlight even briefly. 'Su sangre no podemos negar' ('we cannot deny His blood') names the crucifixion plainly, and 'precioso cordero inmolado' ('precious slain lamb') echoes Revelation 5:12's declaration, 'worthy is the Lamb who has been killed,' translated into Spanish worship language almost exactly.
'Que de la tumba Él se levantó' ('that He rose from the tomb') answers Mark 16:6's announcement — 'he is risen, he is not here' — as the song's climactic claim, the point every repeated 'se trata de Jesús' has been building toward. 'Hoy yo levanto el corazón, de mi canción es la razón' ('today I lift up my heart, that's the reason for my song') makes the song's own existence part of its content — it doesn't just describe why Jesus matters, it names itself as one direct response to that fact.
Se trata de Jesús
De como nuestra vida transformó,
Se trata de Jesús
Su sangre no podemos negar,
Se trata de Jesús
Y el pacto que nos hizo con su amor,
Se trata de Jesús
Que de la tumba Él se levanto.
Hoy yo levanto el corazón
De mi canción es la razón,
Aleluya, aleluya, aleluya,
Te adoraré.
Se trata de Jesús
Regalo de amor nos entregó,
Se trata de Jesús
Precioso cordero inmolado.
Hoy yo levanto el corazón
De mi canción es la razón,
Aleluya, aleluya, aleluya,
Te adoraré.
Aleluya, aleluya, aleluya,
Te adoraré.
Hoy yo levanto el corazón
De mi canción es la razón,
Aleluya, aleluya, aleluya,
Te adoraré.
Aleluya, aleluya, aleluya,
Te adoraré.
