Lord, to know Thee as the Body,
主，我今最迫切之需，
Is my desperate need today,
是認識你是“身體，”
Oh, to see Thee in Thy member,
藉你肢體得認識你，
’Tis for this I long and pray.
是我所慕和所祈。
No more just to know Thy headship,
不僅認識你我合一，
In an individual way,
作我個人的元首，
But to see Thee incarnated,
並見你也住在“身體”，
In Thy Body, Lord, I pray.
主，我今向你祈求。

Through the years, Thy saints have sought Thee,
多年以來眾聖尋你，
Longing for reality;
熱切尋求你實際；
Gazing upward, searching inward,
向天注目、向裡尋覓，
Thirsting for the sight of Thee.
渴望見到你自己。
Now reveal that Christ in heaven,
你今啟示天上基督，
Is the Body manifest;
是藉“身體”來顯現，
And the Christ who dwells within us
居住我們裏的基督，
As the Body is expressed.
要在“身體”裏表現。

Prone to be misled, I know it,
前我對你虛浮觀念，
By my lofty thoughts of Thee,
時常誤導我起意：
Easy ’tis for self to seek Thee,
以為獨自較易尋見，
Yet not touch reality,
卻未摸著你實際，
Oh, how much I need to find Thee,
哦，我何等需要看見，
In Thy members here below.
須藉肢體找到你。
God eternal dwells among us,
永活的神住人中間，
Manifest in flesh to know.
乃是顯在肉身裏。

Limit, Lord, my independence,
主限制我單獨思想，
Let me to Thy Body turn;
使我轉向你“身體”；
Not just seeking light from heaven,
不單尋求屬天亮光，
But the church’s sense to learn.
教會感覺也憑依。
May we be the stones for building,
將我作成建造活石，
Not the formless, useless clay,
不再無用像泥土，
Gain in us Thy heart’s desire,
好使我們為你意旨，
Corporately Thyself display.
團體來將你顯露。
