第8首 聖道來臨歌

詞:來自七世紀拉丁聖詩

中文 英文
1 至高聖道源出父懷,
永恆深處顯明出來;
末世降生憐憫世間,
拯救孤苦脫離憂患。
O Word, that goest forth on high
From God’s own depths eternally,
Who in these latter days art born
For succor to a world forlorn;
2 懇求天光照亮心靈,
燃起愛火熱切不停;
既聞恩召警醒歸依,
往昔罪愆盡都拋棄。
Our hearts enlighten from above,
And kindle with the fire of love,
That we, who hear the call today,
At length may cast our sins away.
3 當主降臨審判萬方,
人心隱祕顯露無藏;
隱罪必受公義報應,
聖徒得國應許必成。
And when as Judge Thou drawest nigh,
The secrets of all hearts to try;
When vengeance falls on hidden sin,
And Saints their promised reign begin;
4 莫因往昔罪惡過犯,
被逐離開恩主榮面;
願與聖徒同享榮光,
聖潔自由萬代久長。
O let us not through evil past
Be driven from Thy face at last,
But with the Saints in glory be
To endless ages pure and free.
5 榮歸聖父以及聖子,
榮歸聖靈三一上帝;
讚美尊貴權能榮華,
世世無盡永歸予祂。阿們。
To God the Father, God the Son,
And God the Spirit, Three in One,
Praise, honor, might, and glory be
From age to age eternally. Amen.
