小孩子與小牛犢

1
聽主吹笛,就歡欣鼓舞,
見主舉哀,就捶胸哀哭;
我們是小孩子,
不受老套拘束,
主有帶領就快快順服!
聰明的人,考慮得太多,
聖靈流到,還慢慢研究;
難怪主向他們就封住,
向嬰孩祂就樂意顯出來。
2
負祂的軛,一步一步走,
學祂樣式,跟隨祂舉止;
我們是小牛犢,
自己不會作主,
每一步都聽憑祂指示!
祂要向東,我們就向東,
祂要向西,我們就向西;
又容易、又輕省、又喜樂,
因為軛其實是由祂負著。

1 He played the flute, we rejoice and leap,

He sung a dirge, we mourn, wail, and weep;

We are little children,

Old things not bound to keep,

When the Lord leads, we quickly take heed!

Those who are wise, much considering,

While Spirit flows, they're still studying;

No wonder the Lord to them concealed,

But to children He willingly revealed.

2 Take the Lord's yoke, step by step obey,

Learn His manner and follow His ways;

We are little young calves,

Knowing not what to do,

Follow His words each step of the way!

When He goes east, we go to the east,

When He goes west, we go to the west;

How easy, how light, and how happy,

For the yoke is borne by Him actually.
