一 晨光掠天而過,我心醒來喊說:
“願頌讚歸耶穌!” 不論工作、禱告,
我要向主倚靠,“願頌讚歸耶穌!”
二 黑夜要變白畫,當我衷心歌謳﹕
“願頌讚歸耶穌!” 黑暗權勢潰崩,
當它聽聞此聲:“願頌讚歸耶穌!”
三 日、月、星辰歌唱,天使天軍頌揚:
“願頌讚歸耶穌!” 全地同來響應,
齊發歡樂歌聲:“願頌讚歸耶穌!”
四 當我尚存一息,我仍歌唱不已:
“願頌讚歸耶穌!” 唱此永遠歌頌,
直至永世無窮,“願頌讚歸耶穌!”
1. When morning gilds the skies,
My heart awaking cries:
May Jesus Christ be praised!
Alike at work or prayer,
To Jesus I repair:
May Jesus Christ be praised!
2. The night becomes as day
When from the heart we say:
May Jesus Christ be praised!
The pow'rs of darkness fear
When this sweet chant they hear:
May Jesus Christ be praised!
3. Sing, suns and stars of space,
Sing, ye that see His face,
Sing, Jesus Christ be praised!
Let all the earth around
Ring joyous with the sound:
May Jesus Christ be praised!
4. Be this while life is mine
My canticle divine:
May Jesus Christ be praised!
Be this th'eternal song,
Through all the ages long:
May Jesus Christ be praise!
