26 BY THEE O GOD INVITED By Thee

26 哦，神，是祢召我們 BY THEE, O GOD, INVITED 哦，神，是祢召我們 來看祢的兒子， By Thee, O God, invited, We look unto the Son, 祂是祢心的奇珍， 祂行完祢意思； In whom Thy soul delighted, Who all Thy will hath done; Stanza 1 of 5 聖徒詩歌

我們因祢肯白捨 祢的獨一心愛， And by the one chief treasure, Thy bosom freely gave, 才知祢心是真切 要救我們脫害。 Thine own pure love we measure, Thy willing mind to save. Stanza 1 of 5 聖徒詩歌

（二） 哦，聖父，憐憫的神， 我們因子的名， O God of mercy - Father! The one unchanging claim, 才敢向祢常求恩， 才有永遠生命。 The brightest hopes, we gather From Christ's most precious name: Stanza 2 of 5 聖徒詩歌

祢耳所常愛聽聞， 悠揚如音樂的， What always sounds so sweetly In Thine unwearied ear, 已叫我們的靈魂， 脫盡所有猜疑。 Has freed our souls completely From all our guilt and fear. Stanza 2 of 5 聖徒詩歌

（三） 戰兢罪人心常怕 祢永不忘先前， The trembling sinner feareth That God can ne'er forget; 但祂一次的受罰， 使祢不再記念。 But one full payment cleareth His memory of all debt. Stanza 3 of 5 聖徒詩歌

當無什麼可以使 我們得自由時， When nought beside could free us Or set our souls at large, 父，祢愛子的受死， 還了我們罪值。 The death of God's Beloved Secured a full discharge. Stanza 3 of 5 聖徒詩歌

（四） 祢對我們(信祂的) 心中已無忿怒， No wrath God's heart retaineth To usward who believe; 我們現今也無忌， 因知祢已眷顧； No dread in ours remaineth As we His love receive; Stanza 4 of 5 聖徒詩歌

（五） 哦，祢怎麼能喜歡 我們這樣的人？ O God, how canst Thou care for Vile sinners such as we? 我們豈非使祢難， 豈非見祢就恨？ We only made Thee heartsore, We loathed thy face to see. Stanza 5 of 5 聖徒詩歌

哦，真希奇，最希奇！ 這是神聖奧秘！ O wonder of all wonders, O mystery divine: 從前發聲如雷的， 說：“罪人，我屬你！” The One who spoke with thunders Says, “Sinner, I am thine. ” Stanza 5 of 5 聖徒詩歌
