1 |
O Love, that wilt not let me go, I rest my weary soul in Thee; I give Thee back the life I owe, That in Thine ocean depths its flow May richer, fuller be. |
|
2 |
O Light, that followest all my way, I yield my flickering torch to Thee; My heart restores its borrowed ray, That in Thy sunshine’s blaze its day May brighter, fairer be. |
|
3 |
O Joy, that seekest me through pain, I cannot close my heart to Thee; I trace the rainbow through the rain, And feel the promise is not vain That morn shall tearless be. |
|
4 |
O Cross, that liftest up my head, I dare not ask to fly from Thee; I lay in dust life’s glory dead, And from the ground there blossoms red Life that shall endless be. |
The author was inspired to write this hymn in 5 minutes during a time of distress.

1 |
哦，那不肯放我之爱， 我將疲魂安息於你； 我把所欠余生归来， 好使牠在你这深海， 得更丰满洋溢。 |
|
2 |
哦，那照耀我路之光， 我將残灯带来交你； 我心因得你光復亮， 牠的日子藉你太阳， 得更光明美丽。 |
|
3 |
哦，那苦中寻我之乐， 我心不能向你关闭； 我在雨中彩虹寻得， 知你应许不会空说， 天亮便无泪涕。 |
|
4 |
哦，那使我抬头十架， 我不敢求与你稍离； 今生虚荣死葬土下， 那土长出生命红花， 永远开放不已。 |
