我終身在祢手中

1、父,我知道我的一生, 你以替我分好; 
所有必須發生變更, 我不害怕看到; 
我求你賜長久忠誠, 存心討你歡笑。
Father, I know that all my life is portioned out for me, 
And the changes that are sure to come I do not fear to see; 
But I ask Thee for a present mind intent on pleasing Thee. 



2、我求要得“有意”的愛, 時常儆醒的慧, 
常以笑容歡迎事態, 擦乾不禁眼淚, 
心能與牠自己合拍, 好來同情、安慰。 
I ask Thee for a thoughtful love, through constant watching wise, 
To meet the glad with joyful smiles, and to wipe the weeping eyes; 
And a heart at leisure from itself, to soothe and sympathise.

3、我不要有不安意志, 急忙到東到西,
要求要作幾件大事, 或要明白祕密;
我要被待如同孩子, 所往都是受意。
I would not have restless will that hurries to and fro,
Seeking for some great thing to do or secret thing to know;
I would be treated as a child, and guided where I go.

4、無論我在世界何地, 是有何種景況,
我與人心有個交契, 我要保守發旺,
我要為愛出我微力, 為著事奉我王。
Wherever in the world I am, in whatso’er estate,
I have a fellowship with hearts to keep and cultivate;
And a work of lowly love to do for the Lord on Whom I wait.

5、我求你賜每日恩澤, 使我能常受教;
心能從裏與外調和, 當我與你契交;
滿意只佔微小旁側, 若你能得榮耀。
So I ask Thee for the daily strength, to none that ask denied,
And a mind to blend with outward life while keeping at Thy side;
Content to fill a little space, if Thou be glorified.

6、每條路上都有虛假, 是你要我忍耐;
每種境遇都有十架, 是你要我依賴;
但心靠你若是卑下, 無論那裏可愛。
And if some things I do not ask in my cup of blessing be,
I would have my spirit filled the more with grateful love to Thee,
More careful, not to serve Thee much, but to please Thee perfectly.

7、如果在我幸福之中, 有何尚未求祈,
我是渴慕我的內衷, 向你能滿愛意;
寧願不多為你作工, 完全使你歡喜。
There are briers besetting every path that call for patient care;
There is a cross in every lot, and an earnest need for prayer;
But a lowly heart that leans on Thee is happy anywhere.

8、你愛所定我的選擇, 不是我的捆繩;
我在暗中受你領帥, 已識你的見證:
一生充滿捨己的愛, 就是自由一生。
In a service which Thy will appoints there are no bonds for me;
For my inmost heart is taught “ the truth” that makes Thy children “free”
And a life of self-renouncing love is a life of liberty.

詩篇39:4-5 「耶和華啊,求你叫我曉得我身之終!我的壽數幾何?叫我知道我的生命不長!你使我的年日窄如手掌;我一生的年數,在你面前如同無有。各人最穩妥的時候,真是全然虛幻。」

Psalm 39: 4-5 "O Jehovah, cause me to know my end, And the measure of my days, what it is. May I know how transient I am. Behold, You have made my days as mere handbreadths, And my lifetime is as nothing before You; Surely every man at his best is altogether vanity."
