生命聖詩109 | 虔誠敬拜 | Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence | PICARDY

生命聖詩第109首 (Hymns of Life)
詞：The Liturgy of St. James, 6th Century
曲：法國傳統民歌
調：PICARDY


1
凡有血氣，皆當靜默，敬畏謙恭同肅立，
莫想絲毫世俗事物，因主基督正臨格，
親手施天福賜神恩，接受我們恭敬拜。
2
萬王之王童女所生，血肉軀體現人間，
萬主之主竟成人形，救主臨世恩澤長，
甘願捨聖身流寶血，賜與信者作天糧。
3
千萬天軍排列成行，前隊先鋒步伐壯，
光中之光周圍環繞，親從天堂降凡塵，
消滅地獄權除毒鉤，驅散黑暗顯光芒。
4
晝夜俯伏在主足前，撒拉弗與基路伯，
崇拜至尊，翅膀遮面，不停頌讚獻歌聲，
唱哈利路亞，主至聖，哈利路亞，主至聖，阿們。


1.
Let all mortal flesh keep silence,
and with fear and trembling stand;
ponder nothing earthly-minded,
for with blessing in his hand,
Christ our God to earth descendeth,
our full homage to demand.


2.
King of kings, yet born of Mary,
as of old on earth he stood,
Lord of lords, in human vesture,
in the body and the blood,
he will give to all the faithful
his own self for heav'nly food.


3.
Rank on rank the host of heaven
spreads its vanguard on the way,
as the Light of light descendeth
from the realms of endless day,
that the pow'rs of hell may vanish
as the darkness clears away.


4.
At his feet the six-winged seraph,
cherubim, with sleepless eye,
veil their faces to the presence,
as with ceaseless voice they cry,
"Alleluia, alleluia,
alleluia, Lord Most High!"
