頌詩譯選

主啊，用不着我擔心

凌風 譯

主啊，用不着我擔心
我死亡或存活；
愛你服事你是我的本分，
所需的恩典你必賜給我。
如果生命長久，我會歡喜
我就能夠順服長久；
如果短命，我何須憂愁
將升到無盡的白晝？
基督領我所行的路徑
不比祂自己經過的幽暗更深；
所有進入神國的人
必須經過這門。
主啊，來吧，你靠恩典使我得
見到你榮美的面；
如果在地上你的工作是甜的
你的榮耀怎能彰顯？
我對那生命所知有限；
信心的眼睛模糊；
但基督知道一切我就滿足，
我將要與祂同住。

Lord, It Belongs Not to My Care

Lord, it belongs not to my care
Whether I die or live;
To love and serve Thee is my share,
And this Thy grace must give.
If life be long, I will be glad
That I may long obey;
If short, yet why should I be sad
To soar to endless day?
Christ leads me through no darker rooms
Than He went through before;
He that into God's kingdom comes
Must enter by this door.
Come, Lord, when grace hath made me meet
Thy blessed face to see;
For if Thy work on earth be sweet,
What shall Thy glory be?
My knowledge of that life is small;
My eye of faith is dim;
But 'tis enough that Christ knows all,
And I shall be with Him.

Richard Baxter（1615-1691）
English preacher, hymn writer, and author.
