當我已為撒但所擄

C442 E8442*

當我已為撒但所擄,
正在死地作罪囚奴;
神因愛憐前來眷顧,
將我帶回歸向基督。
 
神的宏恩將我重生,
賜我新心,又賜新靈,
且將祂靈放在我靈,
使我有分祂的性情。
2
神用清水灑在我身,
污穢、偶像我全脫盡;
除掉石心,賜我肉心,
使我成為新造新人。
3
神的自己作我生命,
祂的神性是我性情;
我就合於祂的神聖,
能以活出祂所命令。
4
我作祂民,祂作我神,
彼此交通相近相親;
祂是我福,祂是我分,
不再他投,不再他奔。
5
祂的基督作我住處,
我享祂的一切豐富;
祂作我的生命食物,
我就永遠得到飽足。

1. Once I was captured by the foe

Death's prisoner, enslaved by sin;

But in compassion, tenderly,

God brought me back to Christ again!

I am reborn! What wondrous grace!

New spirit and new heart He gave!

His Spirit into mine's been placed;

His nature I may now partake!

2. With water clean He sprinkled me;

From filth and idols set me free.

Stone heart with heart of flesh replaced;

His new creation making me!

3. Yes, God Himself is now my life;

His nature is forever mine.

All His commands I can fulfill,

Since I possess His life divine!

4. He is my God and I am His;

Our fellowship - how near, how dear.

He is my blessed portion full;

I'll never leave Him, never veer!

5. God's Christ is now my dwelling place;

He is my bountiful supply.

By eating Him, the bread of life,

I am forever satisfied!
