一 我耶穌,我愛祢,知道祢屬我;
所有愚昧快樂,我為祢擺脫。
祢是我的救主,流血將我買;
我若曾愛祢,主,應當是現在!
二 我耶穌,我愛祢,因祢先愛我;
為我釘十字架,救贖已穩妥。
我愛祢,因為祢肯為我受害;
我若曾愛祢,主,應當是現在!
三 活著,我是愛祢,死,我也愛祢;
我口要讚美祢,只要存一息。
無論或生或死,此心不稍改:
我若曾愛祢,主,應當是現在!
四 在那快樂無窮、榮耀無比地,
我要在祢面前 永遠稱頌祢;
我頭戴上冠冕,還要唱出來:
我若曾愛祢,主,應當是現在!
1. My Jesus, I love Thee, I know Thou art mine!
For Thee all the follies of sin I resign;
My gracious Redeemer, my Saviour art Thou!
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now!
2. I love Thee, because Thou hast first loved me,
And purchased my pardon on Calvary's tree;
I love Thee for wearing the thorns on Thy brow;
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now!
3. I'll love Thee in life, I will love Thee in death,
And praise Thee as long as Thou lendest me breath;
And say when the death-dew lies cold on my brow:
"If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now!"
4. In mansions of glory and endless delight,
I'll ever adore Thee in heaven so bright;
I'll sing with the glittering crown on my brow:
"If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now!"
