古旧十架

The Old Rugged Cross

 

 

1

各各他山岭上，孤立一十字架，

这是羞辱痛苦记号；
神爱子主耶稣，为世人被订死，

这十架为我最爱珍宝。

On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross,
The emblem of suffering and shame;
And I love that old cross

where the dearest and best
For a world of lost sinners was slain.

 

故我爱高举十字宝架，

直到在主台前见主面；
我一生要背负十字架，

此十架可换公义冠冕。

So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross,
Till my trophies at last I lay down;
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
And exchange it some day for a crown.

 

 

2

主宝贵十字架，乃世人所轻视，

於我却是真神仁慈；
神爱子主耶稣，离天堂众荣华，

甘愿为世人背此十架。

O that old rugged cross,

so despised by the world,
Has a wondrous attraction for me;
For the dear Lamb of God

left His glory above
To bear it to dark Calvary.

 

故我爱高举十字宝架，

直到在主台前见主面；
我一生要背负十字架，

此十架可换公义冠冕。

So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross,
Till my trophies at last I lay down;
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
And exchange it some day for a crown.

 

 

3

各各他的十架，虽然满是血迹，

我仍看此十架为美；
因在此宝架上，救主为我舍命，

洁净我赦免我的众罪。

In that old rugged cross,

stained with blood so divine,
A wondrous beauty I see,
For ’twas on that old cross

Jesus suffered and died,
To pardon and sanctify me.

 

故我爱高举十字宝架，

直到在主台前见主面；
我一生要背负十字架，

此十架可换公义冠冕。

So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross,
Till my trophies at last I lay down;
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
And exchange it some day for a crown.

 

 

4

故我乐意背负，荣耀十字宝架，

甘愿受人轻视辱骂；
他日救主再临，迎接我升天庭，

将永远享受荣耀天家。

To the old rugged cross I will ever be true;
Its shame and reproach gladly bear;
Then He’ll call me some day

to my home far away,
Where His glory forever I’ll share.

 

故我爱高举十字宝架，

直到在主台前见主面；
我一生要背负十字架，

此十架可换公义冠冕。

So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross,
Till my trophies at last I lay down;
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
And exchange it some day for a crown.
