【大地屬主】
詩集:普天頌讚-詩篇 曲:Charles Lockhart 詞:Michael Saward / Psalm 65 中譯:曹敏誠2001
- 上主,大地屬你,雨水恩霖潤澤,
川流不息,江河滿溢,大地又再結實。
- 上主,泥土屬你,晨霧恩澤幼苗,
火熱陽光使它成熟,五穀茁壯豐饒
- 上主,高山屬你,茂草青蔥一片,
提供群畜綠草無缺,主恩隨處可見。
- 豐足大地屬你,賜我畜牧、耕種,
種子、泥土、陽光、雨水,敬謹謝主恩隆,
[ The earth is Yours, O God ]
The earth is yours, O God- you nourish it with rain;
the streams and rivers overflow, the land bears seed again.
The soil is yours, O God- the shoots are moist with dew;
and ripened by the burning sun the corn grows straight and true.
The hills are yours, O God-their grass is lush and green,
providing pastures for the flocks which everywhere are seen.
The whole rich land is yours for fodder or for plough:
and so, for rain, sun, soil and seed, O God, we thank you now.
