耶穌, 耶穌, 我的性命

一 耶穌,耶穌,我的性命,

因為愛的緣故,

求原諒我,將祢聖名,

日念千遍不住。

(副)耶穌,耶穌,最愛救主,

無人無物與祢比擬;

祢的笑容是我歡喜,

我愛,愛祢,祢,主。

二 我心愛祢,不知如何

約束我的奇樂;

祢愛有如一團熱火,

使我心中火熱。

三 因祢是我一切、一切:

我的倚靠、食糧,

我心羡慕,我身醫藥,

我魂永遠力量。

四 燒,燒,哦愛,在我心懷,

日夜厲害的燒!

直至所有其他的愛

燒到無處可找。

五 暗中之光,憂中之樂,

天在地上開始;

耶穌,祢是我愛、我歌,

有誰知祢價值!

六 這愛將受甚麼限制?

要到那裹停止?

進,進,我主,甘甜價值

今日遠勝昨日。

O Jesus, Jesus, Dearest Lord

1. O Jesus, Jesus, dearest Lord!

Forgive me if I say,

For very love, Thy sacred Name

A thousand times a day.

Refrain

O Jesus, Lord, with me abide;

I rest in Thee, whate'er betide;

Thy gracious smile is my reward;

I love, I love Thee, Lord!

2. I love Thee so I know not how

My transports to control;

Thy love is like a burning fire

Within my very soul.

3. For Thou to me art all in all:

My honour and my wealth,

My heart's desire, my body's strength,

My soul's eternal health.

4. Burn, burn, O love, within my heart!

Burn fiercely night and day,

Till all the dross of earthly loves

Is burned, and burned away.

5. O light in darkness, joy in grief,

O heav'n begun on earth;

Jesus my love, my treasure, who

Can tell what Thou art worth?

6. What limit is there to this love?

Thy flight where will Thou stay?

On, on! our Lord is sweeter far

Today than yesterday.
