Turn Your Eyes upon Jesus Lyrics · 歌词中英对照
1 灵魂啊，你被忧伤压着吗？
在黑暗中看不见光？
只要看一眼救主就有光，
还有更丰盛、更自由的生命。
1 O soul, are you burdened with sorrow?
No light in the darkness you see;
There’s light for a look at the Saviour,
And life more abundant and free.
副歌：
哦，转眼仰望耶稣！
定睛看祂荣美的面容！
地上的事物就会奇妙地变得暗淡，
在祂荣耀与恩典的光中。
Chorus:
O turn your eyes unto Jesus!
Look full in His wonderful face!
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim,
In the light of His glory and grace.
2 祂经过死亡进入永生，
我们也跟随祂到那里；
在一切攻击我们的事上都得胜，
共享祂荣耀中的丰富。 [副歌]
2 Through death into life everlasting,
He passed, and we follow Him there;
And conquerors in all that assails us,
His riches in glory to share. [Chorus]
3 祂的话语永不落空，绝不；
只要相信，一切都会好；
然后到这将亡的世界去，
传讲祂完全的救恩。 [副歌]
3 His word shall not fail you, no, never;
Believe it, and all will be well;
Then go to a world that is dying,
His perfect salvation to tell. [Chorus]
About “Turn Your Eyes upon Jesus” · 关于这首圣诗
海伦·豪沃思·莱梅尔（1863–1961）生于英国，在美国长大，1922年写了《定睛看耶稣》的词与曲。据她自己的说法，副歌来自利利亚斯·特罗特一本宣教小册子《聚焦》，那本册子劝人定睛看耶稣，直到别的一切都变得暗淡。全诗三节加副歌，有时也称为《天上的异象》。
Helen Howarth Lemmel (1863–1961), born in England and raised in the United States, wrote both the words and the music of “Turn Your Eyes upon Jesus” in 1922. By her own account the refrain grew out of a missionary tract, “Focussing”, by Lilias Trotter, which urged readers to look full at Jesus until everything else grows dim. The hymn has three stanzas and a refrain, and is sometimes known as “The Heavenly Vision”.
