Songs of Love 2:3
【Take up the task】
1. The morn light shines on this sleeping land,
Awakens thousand souls.
God's great love is vast as boundless ocean;
Deep in you, deep in me, the same we feel
His love the best and real.
Let us grow together,
With our songs send off the winter,
Vines giving fragrance,
Voice of turtle doves getting louder.
Let us rise, and say goodbye
To all fancies, pride and sighs;
To the promised land,
Fairest resting place, let us stride!
2. Why stay in dreams of passing splendors?
Soon they'll all disappear!
Oh my dear, don't look back and keep sighing;
Bear in mind Jesus Christ's precious calling,
Pursue with all your strength.
Come along! Come along!
Take the task upon your shoulder.
Keep our faith in Him,
Let all hardships be turned to power!
Come along! Come along!
Take the task upon your shoulder.
With our hearts steadfast
Let's strive for His will together.
Come along! Come along!
【Luke 5:1-10】
1 On one occasion, while the crowd was pressing in on him to hear the word of God, he was standing by the lake of Gennesaret, 2 and he saw two boats by the lake, but the fishermen had gone out of them and were washing their nets. 3 Getting into one of the boats, which was Simon's, he asked him to put out a little from the land. And he sat down and taught the people from the boat. 4 And when he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, "Put out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch." 5 And Simon answered, "Master, we toiled all night and took nothing! But at your word I will let down the nets." 6 And when they had done this, they enclosed a large number of fish, and their nets were breaking. 7 They signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. And they came and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink. 8 But when Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, "Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord." 9 For he and all who were with him were astonished at the catch of fish that they had taken, 10 and so also were James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, "Do not be afraid; from now on you will be catching men."
