Rescue the perishing, Care for the dying,
速興起傳福音!速搶救靈魂!
1
Rescue the perishing, Care for the dying,
速興起傳福音!速搶救靈魂!
Snatch them in pity from sin and the grave;
看!每天千萬人正在沉淪!
Weep o’er the erring one, Lift up the fallen,
莫塞住憐憫心,莫看重金銀,
Tell them of Jesus the mighty to save.
鬆開手,傳福音,趁著現今。
Chorus 和
Rescue the perishing, Care for the dying;
速興起傳福音!速搶救靈魂!
Jesus is merciful, Jesus will save.
你為何仍忍心,看人沉淪?
2
Though they are slighting Him, Still He is
waiting,
人雖輕視主愛,祂仍在等待,
Waiting the penitent child to receive;
等罪人,心悔改,接受主愛;
Plead with them earnestly, Plead with them gently;
迫切、溫柔、忍耐,來感動人懷,
He will forgive if they only believe.
人信祂,肯悔改,就赦罪債。
3
Down in the human heart, Crushed by the
tempter,
在人心的深處,受惡者欺騙,
Feelings lie buried that grace can restore;
失感覺,心顢頇,恩能復蘇;
Touched by a loving heart, Wakened by kindness,
被主愛所鼓舞,感激主慈憐,
Chords that are broken will vibrate once more.
使已斷的心弦,因主恢復。
4
Rescue the perishing, Duty demands it;
速興起傳福音,是信徒本分,
Strength for thy labor the Lord will provide;
為此主會加恩,將你滋潤;
Back to the narrow way. Patiently win them;
窄路上仍力奔,為得人勤奮,
Tell the poor wand’rer a Savior has died.
宣告主因愛人,竟捨己身。
