有何良友像主耶穌What a Friend We Have in Jesus 有何良友像主耶穌, 當我罪孽,擔我憂? 何等權利能將萬事, 帶到耶穌恩座求! 恩惠,平安,屢屢喪失, 又遇痛苦淚雙流, 皆因未將諸般憂慮, 帶到耶穌恩座求。 What a friend we have in Je –sus, All our sins and griefs to bear! What a priv - i – lege to car – ry Ev – ’ry-thing to God in prayer! Oh, what peace we of –ten for –feit. Oh, what need-less pain we bear, All be-cause we do car –ry Ev – ’ry-thing to God in prayer! HoP 471
生命之道Wonderful Words Life 請為我再歌晿一遍, 奇妙生命之道; 讓我更認識它美麗, 奇妙生命之道; 生命之道美好, 教我信守眞道。 奇哉主道,美哉主道, 生命之道奇妙! 奇哉主道,美哉主道, 生命之道奇妙! Sing them o - ver a-gain to me, Won- derful words of life! Let me more of their beau - ty see, Won- derful words of life! Words of life and beau - ty, Teach me faith and du - ty! Beau - ti – ful words! Won- der – ful words! Won- der – ful words of life! Beau - ti – ful words! Won- der – ful words! Won- der – ful words of life! HoP 245
How Precious Is the Book Divine 寶貴聖經 何等寶貴,神聖聖經,聖靈默示寫成!箴言訓誨,如燈照明,導我走向天庭。我心憂愁,行過淚谷,聖經使我鼓舞;給我生命,喜樂,光明,消我恐懼,憂驚。人生如夜,聖經如光,照我走向前方;直到我見永恆之日,更加皎潔明亮。 How precious is the Book divine, By inspiration giv’n! Bright as a lamp its doctrines shine To guide our souls to heav’n. Its light, descending from above Our gloomy world to cheer. Displays a Savior’s boundless love And brings his glories near. It shows to us our wand’ring ways And where our feet have trod But brings to view the matchless grace Of a forgiving God. This lamp through all the dreary night Of life shall guide our way. Till we behold the clearer light Of an eternal day.
我與救主同行When We Walk with the Lord 我與救主同行, 得主眞道引領, 何等榮光照亮我路程! 只要聴主命令, 主肯與我同行, 信靠順服,主必肯同行。 信靠順服!此外並無別法: 若要在主裡喜樂, 惟有信靠順服。 When we talk with the Lord In the light of his Word, What a glo-ry He sheds on our way! While we do His good –will, He a-bides with us still, And with all who will trust and o –bey. Trust and o-bey; for there’s no oth-er way To be hap-py in Je-sus, but to trust and o-bey. HoP 431
A comparison 比較 Jesus Loves Me This I Know 耶穌愛我我曉得 “He Lives” . . . HoP 365 1 John 3:24 24 Those who obey his commands live in him, and he in them. And this is how we know that he lives in us: We know it by the Spirit he gave us. 約一3:24遵守上帝命令的、就住在上帝裡面.上帝也住在他裡面。我們所以知道上帝住在我們裡面、是因他所賜給我們的聖靈。 Romans 8:16 16 The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children.羅8:16聖靈與我們的心同證我們是上帝的兒女。 Luke 24:27 27 And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself.路24:27於是從摩西和眾先知起,凡經上所指著自己的話都給他們講解明白了。
祂名稱為奇妙His Name Is Wonderful 祂名稱為奇妙,祂名稱為奇妙, 祂名稱為奇妙,耶穌我主。 祂是全能的王,祂是萬能的主, 祂名稱為奇妙,耶穌我主。 祂是大牧者,是萬古的盤石, 祂是全能的神,當伏在主前, 敬愛崇拜祂,祂名稱為奇妙, 耶穌我主。 His name is wonderful, His name is wonderful, His name is wonderful, Jesus my Lord. He is the mighty King, Master of everything, His name is wonderful, Jesus my Lord. He’s the Great Shepherd, the Rock of all Ages, Almighty God is He. Bow down before Him, Love and adore Him. His name is wonderful, Jesus my Lord HoP 50

O let Him have things that hold you, His Spirit like a dove, with descend up on your life, and make you whole. Jesus, O Jesus, come and fill Your lambs. Jesus, O Jesus, come and fill Your lambs. HoP 69

O give Him all your tears and sadness, give Him all your years of pain, And you’’ll enter into life in Jesus’ name. Jesus, O Jesus, come and fill Your lambs. Jesus, O Jesus, come and fill Your lambs. HoP 69
日復日救主加給我力量Day By Day 日復日救主加給我力量, 叫我能勝過諸般患難, 倘蒙主賜各様智慧豐恩, 我必不時常憂慮驚慌; 神慈愛 其恩永遠無止息, 祂叫我常享眞實福氣, 無論我遭遇勞逸或憂喜, 都有主慈愛美意。 Day by day and with each pass – ingmo-ment, Strength I find to meet my tri – als here; Trust –ing in my Fa –ther’s wise be – stow –ment, I’ve no cause for wor-ry or for fear. He whose heart is kind be –yond all meas –ure Gives un – to each day what He deemsbest, Lov-ing –ly, its part of pain and pleas-ure, Min-gling toil with peace and rest. HoP 451
到山嶺上去傳揚Go,Tell It on the Mountain 到山嶺上去傳揚, 越過山崗到各地方, 到山嶺上去傳揚, 傳耶穌基督降生。 當牧羊人在夜間, 看守安靜羣羊, 忽見照耀滿天空, 神聖明亮大光。 Go, tell it on the moun – tain, O – ver the hills and ev –‘ry- where; Go, tell it one the moun – tain That Je – sus Christ is born ! While shep – herds kept their watch – ing O’er si-lent flocks by night, Be-hold through-out the heav –ens There shone a ho-ly light. HoP 122
眞神慈愛寬如海洋There’s a Wideness in God’s Mercy 眞神慈愛寬如海洋, 世人都在主恩內, 公義中間充滿仁慈, 比較自由更寶貴; 救主歡迎悔罪人們, 信者加倍施恩惠, 救主滿懷仁慈、憐憫, 寶血塗抹世人罪。 There’s a wide – ness in God’s mer –cy Like the wide- ness of the sea; There’s a kind – ness in His jus – tice, Which is more than lib – er – ty. There is wel – come for the sin –ner , And more gra –ces for the good; There is mer –cy with the Sav –ior; There is heal – ing in His blood. HoP 323
耶穌,耶穌,讓我充滿愛Jesu, Jesu, Fill Us with Your Love 耶穌,耶穌,讓我充滿愛, 作個好鄰居服事殷勤不懈怠。 主耶穌默然跪下, 為門徒抹腳洗足, 主人的身份甘作奴僕。 Je – su, Je – su, fill us with Your love. Showushowtoservethe neigh–bors WehavefromYou. KneelsatthefeetofHisfriends, Si–lent–lywash–estheirfeet, Mas–terwhopoursoutHim–selfforthem. HoP 493
