詩歌:Here in This Place

星期天我們教會唱這首詩歌,意思是要聚集敬拜了。從網上找到,還是新冠開始大流行,人人禁足居家的時候,各人唱了錄了,用合成工具製作的合唱詩歌呢。是的,在靈裡我們是同在一處敬拜的。

歌詞:
1. Here in this place the new lights is streaming;
now is the darkness vanished away; 這裡新光噴射,現在黑暗消失
see in this place our fears and our dreamings 這裡有我們的擔心和夢想
brought here to you in the light of this day. 在這光明之日帶來給你
Gather us in, the lost and forshaken; 召聚我們失落和被遺棄的人
gather us in, the blind and the lame; 召聚我們失明和瘸腿的人
call to us now, and we shall awaken; 向我們呼召,我們就覺醒
we shall arise at the sound of our name. 聽見我們的名字,我們就起立

2. We are the young, our lives are a mystery. 我們年輕,生活是謎
We are the old who yearn for your face, 我們年老,渴望見到你的面
We have been sung throughout all our history, 我們歷來都聽見戰歌
called to be light to the whole human race, 蒙召作人類之光
Gather us in, the rich and the haughty; 召聚我們富有和傲慢的人
Gather us in, the proud and the strong; 召聚我們自豪和強壯的人
Give us a heart, so meek and so lowly; 給我們一顆溫和謙讓的心
Give us the courage to enter the song. 給我們勇氣進入戰歌

Here we will take the wine and the water; 我們要在這裡取酒和水
here we will take the bread of new birth. 我們要在這裡取新生之糧
Here you shall call your sons and your daughters, 你在這裡召喚兒女
call us anew to be salt for the earth. 再次召喚我們作地上的鹽
Give us to drink and wine of compassion; 給我們喝憐憫的酒
give us to eat the bread that is you; 給我們吃你生命的糧
nourish us well, and teach us to fashion 滋養我們,教我們活出
lives that are holy and hearts that are true. 屬神的生命與真誠的心

Not in the dark of buildings confining, 不在陰暗的牢房中
not in some heaven, light years away; 不在遙遠的天堂
here in this place the new light is shining; 就在這新光照耀的地方
now is the kingdom and now is the day. 正在當今國度時代
Gather us in and hold us forever; 召聚我們永遠保守我們
gather us in and make us your own; 召聚我們讓我們屬於你
gather us in, all peoples together, 召聚我們所有族裔
fire of love in our flesh and our bone. 神愛的火在我們的身上
