多年以前,我刚受浸不久后的一个星期五的晚上,我去教会查经。那一天我到的有些晚,等我吃完饭时餐厅里已只剩我一个,大家都去唱诗了。我见厨房没人,有一堆还没洗的盆盆罐罐,就系上围裙拧开了水龙头。这时隐隐约约飘来一阵歌声,像有一只手在拨动我的心弦,使我泪水涌溢,顺着面颊毫无顾忌地滑落。。。顾不得满脸涕泗横流,我迅速地冲进聚会的地方,一把揪住最靠门边的那个人的诗歌本,记下了这首诗歌的名字——《照我本相》。。。
以后每一次在葛理翰布道会最后呼召时听到这首歌,我依然会热泪盈眶,想起那个星期五的傍晚,对于我有一位照着我的本相接纳我、又应许必改变我的救主耶稣基督,心里满怀感恩。。。
“凡父所赐给我的人,必到我这里来;到我这里来的,我总不丢弃他。(约翰福音 6:37)”
Jack Holcomb "Just As I Am"
ZT from http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eiEJ9W8J5X0
Just as I am, without one plea,
But that Thy blood was shed for me,
And that Thou bidd'st me come to Thee,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come.
Just as I am, and waiting not
To rid my soul of one dark blot,
To Thee whose blood can cleanse each spot,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come.
Just as I am, tho' tossed about
With many a conflict, many a doubt,
Fightings and fears within, without,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come.
Just as I am, poor, wretched, blind-
Sight, riches, healing of the mind,
Yea, all I need in Thee to find-
O Lamb of God, I come, I come.
Just as I am, Thou wilt receive,
Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve,
Because Thy promise I believe,
O Lamb of God, I come! I come!
