Because Of Love / 是因着爱

曲：杨伯伦
词：杨伯伦
英译：蒋慧民

Because of love, shepherds heard the angels’ song;
Because of love, Infant Christ’s so quietly in manger born;
Because of love, God gave the world His begotten Son;
Because of love, eternal light upon the dark world shines.

Jesus our Lord, how amazing’s Your nativity;
Jesus our Lord, Your gift’s so very precious;
Jesus our Lord, You reign thru all eternity;
Jesus our Lord, Your mercy’s to all generations.

Because of love, He was put on thorns, whipped and railed;
Because of love, He bore the cross upon Calvary;
Because of love, He sent the Spirit of Truth to teach;
Because of love, He’ll leave us not as orphans but stay with us.

O thanks to God, we remember Your humility;
O thanks to God, for Your sacrifice we shed tears;
O thanks to God, ’tis Your grace that saved us from the dead;
O thanks to God, You guide us to life for ay!

是因着爱，牧人听见天使歌声。
是因着爱，圣婴安静地诞生马槽里。
是因着爱，神竟赏赐独生子给世人。
是因着爱，神永恒光辉照亮黑暗世界。

耶稣我主，你的降生何等奇妙。
耶稣我主，你的礼物何等珍贵。
耶稣我主，你的权柄伸展到永远。
耶稣我主，你的慈爱传扬到万代。

是因着爱，头戴荆棘受鞭打辱骂。
是因着爱，祂背负十架走上各各他。
是因着爱，祂赐真理圣灵教导众人。
是因着爱，不撇下孤儿常与我们同在。

感谢我主，你的谦卑使我常纪念。
感谢我主，你的牺牲使我常流泪。
感谢我主，你的恩典使我得拯救。
感谢我主，你的引领使我得永生。
