愛的凱歌 (Adore Him)恩典大過我罪("Grace Greater than Our Sin")Hi, 各位聽眾朋友們，平安！歡迎收聽愛的凱歌(Adore Him)，我是Judy。今天 和大家分享聖詩〈恩典大過我罪〉(“Grace Greater than Our Sin”) 。 在1870年代初期，一位住在芝加哥的青年，他的名字為David Caleb Cook。身為主日學老師，他對兒童基督教教育一直有很大的熱情與使命。走在路上只要看到小朋友，就會邀請他們到教會參加主日學。在教學過程中，有鑒於主日學教材的貧乏或者教材中有些內容的不恰當，David Caleb Cook於是自己開始著手寫主日學課程。為了方便作業，他就在父親開設的印刷店中工作。每次寫完一個教案，就直接在自家經營的印刷店中印刷教材；每次他都多印幾份，帶去教會和其他的主日學老師分享。1875年，他以自己的名字成立了David C. Cook出版社。 隨著時間推進，David Caleb Cook經營的出版社也開始和其他的基督徒作家合作；Julia H. Johnston 就是其中一位。Julia H. Johnston不僅僅是位作家，也接手管理由母親創辦的宣教機構。她也投入主日學的教學長達四十年。Julia H. Johnston撰寫的許多主日學課程，都透過David C. Cook 出版社發行。除了是作家、主日學老師、宣教機構執行長的身分，Julia H. Johnston也從事聖詩的創作。她一生創作約五百首聖詩。今天和大家介紹的聖詩〈恩典大過我罪〉(“Grace Greater than Our Sin”)的詩詞，就是她創作的。在默想與查考羅馬書第五、第六章這兩章的聖經經文後，為見證神奇妙慈愛的恩典，她寫下了〈恩典大過我罪〉(“Grace Greater than Our Sin”)的詩詞。 在Julia H. Johnston創作這首聖詩的詩詞後，不久，Daniel B. Towner為這首聖詩譜曲。Daniel B. Towner小時便開始學習音樂，也曾接受作曲家George Root的訓練。George Root就是和素有聖詩皇后之稱的芬妮長期合作、一同創作聖詩的作曲家。Daniel B. Towner原本是在紐約(New York)、俄亥俄州(Ohio)、肯塔基州(Kentucky)這些地方的不同教會服事，擔任詩班指揮與輔導。後來他搬到芝加哥，接受Dwight L. Moody的邀請，在穆迪聖經學院的音樂系服事。也就是從那時起，他得以出版許多創作的聖詩。據估計，他一生創作約兩千多首的聖詩曲調，並出版14本的聖詩。其中的一本聖詩—Hymns Tried and True—於1911年出版，並在當中向世人介紹聖詩〈恩典大過我罪〉(“Grace Greater than Our Sin”)。Daniel B. Towner將這首聖詩的曲調命名為Moody，一方面是記念他與Dwight L. Moody之間一同服事神的關係；另一方面也表達他與穆迪聖經學院的連結。 今天和大家介紹的聖詩〈恩典大過我罪〉(“Grace Greater than Our Sin”)，其中除了提到創作這首詩詞與曲調的作者，也提到了相關的人物，例如佈道家也是穆迪聖經學院的創辦人Dwight L. Moody、出版社創辦人David Caleb Cook，以及幫助Daniel B. Towner在創作音樂上成長的George Root。 這些歷史上的人物，雖來自不同的背景與經歷，但他們都被神奇妙的恩典大能所觸摸與得著。他們忠心信實地在各自的崗位上，按著神給個人不同的恩賜，以文字、口說、音樂、歌唱等等多樣的形式，口唱心和且不斷地向世人傳揚一個共同的信息：神奇妙的恩典。 而時間來到二十一世紀的今日，美國現代作曲家Sandra Zystra，將聖詩〈恩典大過我罪〉(“Grace Greater than Our Sin”)改編為雙鋼琴曲，並且以這首聖詩第一節的第一句作為這首雙鋼琴曲的標題。標題為：Marvelous Grace of Our Loving Lord。 節目的資訊欄有聖詩〈恩典大過我罪〉(“Grace Greater than Our Sin”)中、英文歌詞的對照。在今天節目的尾聲，邀請您一同來聆聽這首以聖詩〈恩典大過我罪〉(“Grace Greater than Our Sin”)改編的雙鋼琴曲Marvelous Grace of Our Loving Lord。願我們一同領受慈愛的神奇妙的恩典，因祂的恩典大過我們的罪。我們下次見！ ❤️ We welcome feedback and comments: https://open.firstory.me/story/clrq2cwjl01k401v51igm6r6f?m=comment ❤️ 愛的凱歌 Adore Him: https://he-is-the-one-we-adore.firstory.io/ --------------------------------------------------------- ✏️ Marvelous Grace of Our Loving Lord From Sunday Worship For Two Piano Duets, Volume 1 雙鋼琴編曲｜Arranged by: Sadran Zylstra 演奏｜Performed by Judy Lin and Vivien Lin 混音＆後製｜Sound Mixing & Mastering by Vivien Lin 詞｜Words by Julia H. Johnston 曲｜Music by Daniel E. Towner 1 Marvelous grace of our loving Lord, Grace that exceeds our sin and our guilt! Yonder on Calvary's mount out-poured– There where the blood of the Lamb was spilt. Refrain: Grace, grace, God's grace, Grace that will pardon and cleanse within; Grace, grace, God's grace, Grace that is greater than all our sin! 1 慈愛主滿有奇妙宏恩，宏恩遠超我罪孽衍尤， 各各他山上寶血流渗，羔羊之血能洗淨罪咎。 (副歌) 真神恩典，能赦免我罪，淨洗內心，真神 恩2025-03-0711 min

愛的凱歌 (Adore Him)破碎器皿 (奇異恩典) ("Broken Vessels(Amazing Grace)")Hi, 各位聽眾朋友們，平安！歡迎收聽愛的凱歌(Adore Him)，我是Judy。 不久前，我無意間讀到一首翻譯為中文的法文短詩，寫這首詩的作者是蓋恩夫人。蓋恩夫人(Madame Jeanne Guyon) 擬人化的狀態來形容「平安」，除了詩的一開始和結尾，直接明白地提到「平安」這個詞，詩中字句，皆用女字旁的「她」來稱呼「平安」。 這首短詩總共有兩段，我讀給大家聽： 「平安」的臉兒已經顯露著微笑， 要吸引你的靈魂引入她的懷抱。 你若放下空虛的屬地的追求， 她的安適的撫慰就可得著享受。 她願意與尋求真理的人同在， 若有人不愛真理，她也就不理睬。 用簡單的心降伏地向主獻上 你所有的和你所是的一切。 除了出於神，任何能力都不喜， 那麼，「平安」就將要長期屬於你。 請注意：這就是我所走的道路， 它要一直引我到家，見我的父。(註1) 這首詩的第一節清楚點明，「平安」已經向我們招手，對著我們微笑，吸引我們投入她的懷抱。但若我們追求屬地的一切，將無法得著「平安」；若我們不愛真理，「平安」也會對我們不理不睬。 詩的第二節提及，只要單單愛慕神，將自己的所有和所是完全獻給神，那麼，我們時時刻都會有「平安」。最後幾句話，我很喜歡，蓋恩夫人這麼說：「請注意：這就是我所走的道路，它要一直引我到家，見我的父。」 基督徒在各種聚會中碰面、打招呼時，經常會互相道一聲：「平安」。有時候，彼此祝福著對方、互道「平安」，其實是很寶貴的一件事！ 有位教會的姐妹分享，公司在一些節日要求職員準備拜拜祭品。她辦公室的同事，因為與她在工作上或許有競爭的關係，也或許多少對她有些嫉妒，所以，在準備拜拜的東西時，會手中一邊做事，一邊嘲諷她： 「你什麼都不做嗎？」 「你現在信耶穌了，都不拜拜了」、 「祢的神有給你什麼嗎？」、 「你也不像我們有掛戴保平安的符咒或手戴佛珠…」、 「你究竟有什麼？」 「我有的是你肉眼看不到的。我擁有的，是在我的裡面，世上的人無法奪走的平安。」這位教會姐妹回答同事。 她告訴我，她回話後，其實有些緊張，但也很訝異自然就脫口說出這些話，因為她總是秉持著，在辦公室就是低調、安靜做事，而且當時她剛信主不久，也不清楚如何應對才是合宜的。事後她回想，實在很感謝神幫助她，給她話語與膽量回應。 這位教會姐妹在辦公室發生的事以及蓋恩夫人的詩，又讓我再次體認到神的愛是何等長闊高深；祂的恩典是這麼的奇妙。神在我們心中放下平安的記號，引導我們來到祂的面前。起初，我們或許是被平安所吸引，但至終，我們明白了，我們要回到父的家，見我們的天父。 Hillsong Worship在2014年發行專輯No Other Name。在這張專輯中，〈破碎器皿（奇異恩典）〉(“Broken Vessels (Amazing Grace)”)深受許多人的喜愛。這首詩歌以“遠離神的生命與人生如同支離破碎的瓦器”描述我們人類的景況。我想這呼應蓋恩夫人在詩中提到的景況——若我們追求屬地的一切，又撇棄真理，平安將遠離我們；至終，我們無法回到天父的面前。 〈破碎器皿（奇異恩典）〉是由Joel Houston & Jonas Myrin共同創作的詩歌。Joel Houston在一次採訪中提到，他和Jonas Myrin雖然認識多年，但從未一起合作創作詩歌。有一次他去紐約遇到Jonas Myrin，聊了好幾個小時，互相分享關乎生命、信仰之類的事，後來自然而然，提到一起創作詩歌。那時，Joel Houston略略寫了幾句歌詞，這首詩歌的出發點，就是談論我們這遠離神的罪人、如同破碎的器皿。Jonas Myrin聽了之後，覺得這個點子很不錯。大約六個月之後，兩人在澳洲碰面。那時Joel Houston提出，雖然我們的生命破碎、失敗，但哥林多後書4:7也提到：「我們有這寶貝放在瓦器裡，要顯明這莫大的能力是出於神，不是出於我們。」這就是這首詩歌主要表達的核心精神。換言之，這首詩歌在描述，神賜下饒恕與愛的恩典，藉由祂的愛子在十架上犧牲捨命，使支離破碎的我們、得蒙醫治與拯救。 延續這個概念，這首詩歌在第二節歌詞，進一步地強調，我們當將自己的心全然獻給主，並要禱告與告白：主，袮將我一切的心意奪回，單單屬於袮。我是袮的器皿，袮放下寶貝在我這瓦器裡，世界必知袮在我裡面。 至於這首詩歌的副歌，有兩個部分。在前半段的部分，引用大家熟悉的詩歌〈奇異恩典〉前幾句的歌詞，作為鋪陳。 Amazing grace 奇異恩典 How sweet the sound 何等甘甜 That saved a wretch like me, oh 我罪已得赦免。喔， I once was lost 前我失喪 But now I'm found 今我被尋回 Was blind but now I see 瞎眼今得看見 緊接著副歌的後半段，以「我能看見」作為延續，敘述著因著神啟示祂饒恕的愛與救恩，如今我們能夠看見——能夠看見神愛子在十架上為我們破碎，為要使我們在祂手中重得醫治與完全。所以後半段副歌這麼描述： Oh, I can see it now 喔，今我能看見你 Oh, I can see the love in Your eyes 喔，我能見主慈愛雙眼 Laying yourself down 袮犧牲捨命 Raising up the broken to life 使破碎者復活得生 各位聽眾，雖然過去這幾週，我們的podcast以「平安」這個主題來回應我們在台灣面對農曆七月的處境，然而我們需要彼此提醒，我們終極的方向與目標，並非是「平安」，而是尋求與愛慕神給我們的應許——我們住在祂裡面、祂也住在我們裡面的那永恆的合一。 在今天節目的資訊欄中，有〈破碎器皿（奇異恩典）〉中、英文歌詞的對照，以及蓋恩夫人寫的詩。節目的尾聲，邀請您一同來聆聽〈破碎器皿（奇異恩典）〉(“Broken Vessels (Amazing Grace)”)的鋼琴獨奏。我們下週見！ *註(1): 蓋恩夫人(Madame Guyon)。《屬靈寶藏（五）：申辯、靈命的歷程與危機、士師記、蓋恩夫人的信》。香港：拾恩，2015。 ❤️ We welcome feedback and comments: https://open.firstory.me/story/clrq2cwjl01k401v51igm6r6f?m=comment ❤️ 愛的凱歌 Adore Him: https://he-is-the-one-we-adore.firstory.io/ --------------------------------------------------------- ✏️ 〈破碎器皿（奇異恩典）〉(“Broken Vessels (Amazi2024-08-1512 min

愛的凱歌 (Adore Him)奇異恩典 ("Amazing Grace")😂😅 更正告示：John Newton牧會的地方叫Olney，並非錄音檔案中的Oneal(口誤)!! Hi, 各位聽眾朋友們，歡迎收聽愛的凱歌Adore Him。 今天要和大家分享的讚美詩為〈奇異恩典〉(“Amazing Grace”)。英國《衛報》稱這首讚美詩為「基督教國歌」。2020年新冠疫情在世界各地肆虐，同年4月12日，被稱為世界第四男高音的音樂家安德烈·波切利（Andrea Bocelli）站在義大利米蘭大教堂門口前，面對著教堂廣場獨唱這首讚美詩。2023年1月1日，這首讚美詩迎來了它第250週年紀念日。 許多人知道〈奇異恩典〉這首讚美詩的創作背景，與作詞者約翰．牛頓(John Newton)在海上經歷暴風，禱告尋求神的拯救有關。但是，約翰．牛頓一生的經歷，比起這個情節，更能深刻體現「上帝的奇異恩典」這句話的意涵。 牛頓在1725年出生於英國倫敦。他的父親是西班牙人；母親則是英國人，一位敬虔的基督徒。牛頓七歲時，母親過世。11歲開始，跟著父親跑船，不久，他的父親娶了第二任妻子。牛頓漸漸地開始過著叛逆、放蕩的人生。 受到父親影響，牛頓17歲時成為海員，不久受其他水手的影響，染上吃喝嫖賭等各種惡習。英法戰爭爆發時，他被強行徵召入伍，靠著父親的關係，他在船艦上得到了副官的職位，於是開始驕傲起來，看不起那些跟他從前一樣是普通水手的船員。接著，軍中有人介紹他讀了一本無神論的書籍，牛頓的行為變得越發墮落，常常褻瀆神的名。有一回，艦長派他去捉拿一個逃兵，結果他自己卻趁機逃跑。被逮補回來後，他再次被貶為一般的水手，在眾人面前受鞭刑。為此，他萌生謀殺艦長的意圖。因神的恩典，遭到神無形之手的制止。 牛頓退伍，離開海軍之後，轉往一家商船工作，依然過著渾渾噩噩的生活。後來，他在阿莫斯．克勞(Amos Clowe)手作工作。克勞的妻子對牛頓存有許多戒心和偏見，於是趁著有次丈夫遠洋在外，藉故百般折磨牛頓，甚至讓牛頓成為黑人的奴隸。克勞回家後，妻子又誣告牛頓偷竊，於是克勞用鐵鍊、枷鎖鎖住牛頓的腳踝，用盡各種辦法折磨他，使他生不如死……。牛頓在危難中，託人帶信向父親求救。神恩典的手再次伸向他。經過一番波折，1748年春天，受父親所託的朋友，幫助牛頓搭上一艘遠洋輪船「灰狗號」，從非洲返回英國。 橫跨大西洋途中，牛頓又開始胡作非為，毫無顧忌地謾罵、褻瀆神的名，嘲諷《聖經》中的話語。但有天夜晚，他讀到Thomas Kempis所著的《效法基督》(Imitation of Christ)一書，大為震撼⋯，緊接著，那晚夜半，「灰狗號」進入暴風雨中心。所有船員與暴風搏鬥，直到第二天早上。雖然大家已經精疲力盡，但風暴依然繼續。正當船長開會和大家商量辦法時，牛頓脫口說出連他自己都很驚訝的話：「…我們這樣做還不夠，我們還需要求主憐憫我們！」危難中，牛頓也想起《聖經》中的話語，為著自己過往的罪孽深感痛悔。神的憐憫與恩典再次臨到牛頓。最終「灰狗號」脫離暴風圈，一個月後在愛爾蘭靠岸。 上岸後，牛頓立刻前往教堂，跪下禱告，感謝神的憐憫與恩典，一方面為著過去人生中辱罵與褻瀆神的名，向神認罪悔改；另一方面向神禱告，願意將自己的餘生奉獻給神，被神使用。 雖然牛頓經歷這次生命的大翻轉，但因不久前才結婚，為了養家，他又去應徵從事與奴隸貿易有關的船長工作。神的憐憫與恩典再次臨到他，花了近七年的時間，在一次病倒後，醫生證實牛頓再也無法從事船員的工作後，他因而獲得了一份觀潮員的工作。此後，牛頓定期參加主日崇拜。 在教會，他和後來成為著名的佈道家約翰．衛斯理(John Wesley)一起學習拉丁文和希伯來文《 聖經》。在期間，牛頓也想起了母親生前對他的代禱，以及對他的期望--希望他將來能成為牧師，侍奉神。當時英國國教嚴格規定，沒有受過神學大學教育者，無法取得牧師資格。牛頓沒有放棄，透過不斷地在家練習與在教堂做見證，提升自己講道的水準。1764年他寫的《一篇真實的記述》成為當年英國的暢銷書。同年，英國聖公會破例按立他為牧師。 成為牧師後，牛頓在偏遠的小市鎮奧爾尼 （Olney）侍奉主。牧會期間，養成了寫讚美詩的習慣。他配合每週講道的信息，創作詩歌，幫助會眾更能深入了解信息內容。其中，許多詩歌都是他與當地的一位詩人，也是他的好友威廉．考柏（William Cowper）一起寫的。 1773年的新年禮拜之前，牛頓為配合當天的講道信息──歷代志上十七章16-17節，和考柏寫了〈奇異恩典〉這首讚美詩。（1879年倆人創作的《奧爾尼詩集》 （Olney Hymns）問世，總共收錄348首聖詩，牛頓寫的佔280首；其中最能反映約翰一生經歷的就是〈奇異恩典〉。） 在奧爾尼牧會16年後，牛頓回到出生地倫敦。1787年，在牛頓脫離奴隸販者的身分34年後，他打破沉默，出版了《論非洲奴隸貿易》（Thoughts upon the African Slave Trade）一書，勇敢向社會坦承自己曾是運送黑奴的船長。當時英國國會議員威廉．威伯福斯（William Wilberforce）深受本書啟發，在本書出版的隔年，1788年，提出廢奴法案。1807年，也就是二十年後，禁止買賣黑奴的相關法律在英國國會最終獲得通過。同年，約翰牛頓返回天家，享年82歲。 回天家前，牛頓隨著年紀增長，記憶力大不如從前，但他告白：「雖然我的記憶力逐漸衰退，我卻清楚記得兩件事：我是個大罪人，基督是我偉大的救主。」（“Although my memory's fading, I remember two things very clearly: I am a great sinner and Christ is a great Savior.“） ------------------------------------------ ＊ 奇異恩典 (“Amazing Grace”) 中英歌詞對照： Amazing grace how sweet the sound That saved a wretch like me I once was lost, but now I’m found Was blind but now I see 奇異恩典，何等甘甜，我罪已得赦免， 前我失喪，今被尋回，瞎眼今得看見。 ‘Twas grace that taught my heart to fear And grace my fears relieved How precious did that grace appear The hour I first believed 如此恩典，使我敬畏，使我心得安慰， 初信之時，既蒙恩惠，真是何等寶貴。 Through many dangers, toils, and snares I have already come This grace that brought me safe thus far And grace will lead me home 許多危險，試煉網羅，我已安然經過， 靠主恩典，安全不怕，更引導我歸家。 The Lord has promised good to me, His Word my hope secures; He will my Shield and Portion be, As long as life endures. 救主應許，愛我真切，使我今得盼望； 主是盾牌，是我產業，是我生命保障。 Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail, And mortal life shall cease, I shall possess, within the veil, A life of joy and peace. 歷盡艱險，勞苦奔走，我今來到主前； 全靠主恩，扶持保佑，恩典帶進永久。 When we’ve been here ten thousand years Bright, shining as the sun We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise Than when we first begun 將來禧年，聖徒歡聚，恩光愛誼千年， 喜樂頌讚，在父座前，深望那日快現。 -------------------------------------------------------2024-02-0210 min
