再不久 Sweet By And By 曲: Joseph P. Webster, 1868 詞: Sanford F. Bennett, 1868 聖徒詩歌 第542首
1. 有一地比正午更光明, 路遙遙 我因信常望見, There’s a land that is fairer than day, And by faith we can see it afar, 我天父久己在那邊等, 主為我備居所於裹面. For the Father waits over the way, To prepare us a dwelling place there.
再不久, 再不久, 將會晤眾聖徒於美地; (x2) In the sweet by and by, We shall meet on that beautiful shore. (x2)
2. 到美地, 同唱詩, 同讚頌, 眾聖徒心喜樂何久長; We shall sing on that beautiful shore The melodious songs of the blest, 得安息, 享永生, 常交通, 無懼怕, 無憂愁, 無悲傷. And our spirits shall sorrow no more, Not a sigh for the blessing of rest.
再不久, 再不久, 將會晤眾聖徒於美地; (x2) In the sweet by and by, We shall meet on that beautiful shore. (x2)
3. 再不久, 同聚集來唱詩, 同讚頌我聖父奇妙愛: To our bountiful Father above We will offer the tribute of praise, 賜獨子來世界受苦死, 使罪人能得救至萬代. For the glorious gift of His love, And the blessings that hallow our days.
再不久, 再不久, 將會晤眾聖徒於美地; (x2) In the sweet by and by, We shall meet on that beautiful shore. (x2)
