1. 活著為耶穌,只望能單純. Living for Jesus, a life that is true,所有的一切都求祂喜悅; Striving to please Him in all that I do;自動並樂意來向祂投順, Yielding allegiance, glad hearted and free,這是我蒙神賜福的祕訣。 This is the pathway of blessing for me.
(副)耶穌我主,我救主,我將自己給你; (Ref) O Jesus, Lord and Savior, I give myself to Thee,因你為我代死時,給的是你自己; For Thou, in Thy atonement, didst give Thyself for me.從此,我無別的主,我心是你寶座, I own no other Master, my heart shall be Thy throne.我的一生一世,基督,只要為你生活。 My life I give, henceforth to live, O Christ, for Thee alone.
2. 活著為耶穌,祂為我緣故, Living for Jesus Who died in my place, 在十字架上擔當罪與羞; Bearing on Calvary my sin and disgrace;這愛激勵我答應祂召呼, Such love constrains me to answer His call,恭敬向著祂奉獻我所有。 Follow His leading and give Him my all.

3. 活著為耶穌,無論在何處, Living for Jesus, wherever I am,我為祂緣故,作成祂事務; Doing each duty in His holy Name;甘願來承受損失或痛苦, Willing to suffer affliction and loss,看每個試煉是十架一部。 Deeming each trial a part of my cross.

4. 活著為耶穌,時間已短促, Living for Jesus through earth’s little while,祂的笑臉是我寶貴祕密; My dearest treasure, the light of His smile;尋找失喪者,祂死所救贖, Seeking the lost ones He died to redeem,帶領疲倦者享受祂安息。 Bringing the weary to find rest in Him.
