我的道路

一 如果我的道路引我去受苦,

如果祢是命定要我歷艱辛,

就願祢我從茲,交通益親摯,

時也刻也無間,彌久彌香甜。

二 如果地樂消減,求祢多給天,

雖然心可傷痛,願靈仍讚頌;

地的香甜聯結,若因祢分裂,

就願祢我之間,聯結更香甜。

三 這路雖然孤單,求祢作我伴,

用祢笑容鼓舞我來盡前途;

主,我靠祢恩力,盼望能無己,

作一潔淨器皿,流出祢生命。

The Path I Travel

1. If the path I travel

Lead me to the Cross,

If the way Thou choosest,

Lead to pain and loss,

Let the compensation

Daily, hourly, be

Shadowless communion,

Blessed Lord with Thee.

2. If there's less of earth joy

Give, Lord, more of heav'n.

Let the spirit praise Thee,

Though the heart be riv'n ;

If sweet earthly ties, Lord,

Break at Thy decree,

Let the tie that binds us,

Closer, sweeter be.

3. Lonely through the pathway,

Cheer it with Thy smile,

Be Thou my companion

Through earth's little while;

Selfless may I live, Lord,

By Thy grace to be,

Just a cleansed channel

For Thy life through me.
