One bright gleam I see;

Christ for me is watching, waiting,

On the desert way,
正來迎接我；
As the Morning Star foretelling

God’s unclouded day?
神的晴朗天。
He it is who came to win me,
在那蒙羞十字架上，
On the cross of shame;
祂來贏得我；
In His glow well I know Him,
藉祂榮耀，我深知祂：
Evermore the same.
永遠不改變。

O the blessed joy of meeting,

All the desert past;
見主何歡騰！
O the wondrous words of greeting,

He shall speak at last!

He and I together ent’ring

The fair realm above;

There in me displayed.

He who in His hour of sorrow
祂曾為我擔當咒詛，
Bore the curse alone;
渡憂傷時刻；
I who through the lonely desert

Trod where He had gone;
步祂的腳蹤。
He and I, in that bright glory,
將來祂和我在榮耀，
One deep joy shall share—
同享大喜樂－
Mine, to be forever with Him;
我樂，因與祂永同在；
His, that I am there.
