Back to The Music 英文詩歌推介【Higher Purpose】—遠大崇高的使命

 

Back To The Music 2022410 Facebook 專頁已發佈的新歌【Higher Purpose】。今次講述了一個真實的故事,關於一位年輕人為了追尋神,甘願放棄自己的專業和理想,為的就是完成一個更崇高、更遠大的理想和使命。事隔多年後,到了今天,他終於如願,成了合乎神使用的貴重器皿!

「年輕人,Think Big!想大一點!趁你還年輕,為神作真正的大事!」
——
這是我(Vessel)首次遇見日華牧師,他跟我說的話。


【Higher Purpose】

🎵Song Lyrics🎵

A1:
I have tasted the glory
I’m no stranger to vanity
Future plans in perfect order, it seemed
As I started growin’ kinda older
Became just a little bit more wiser
It all started that day by the pier
我嚐過榮耀
浮華於我不陌生
鴻圖大計仿似井然有序
當我韶華老去
變得更聰明睿智
一切從某天碼頭起始

B1:
Called the number
That’s written on the cover
Didn’t think your tape would be the change
That I craved
撥打號碼
印刷在封面
不料錄音帶改寫命運
乃我所渴望

C1:
Higher purpose higher calling
Flying higher, higher than I’ve rocked and rolled
Like a melody that forms a generation
I see things different, that’s for certain
Higher higher higher, just a little more
I wanna see it all before it’s gone for good
The truth is out there
Someday I’ll find what I’ve been looking for
更高目標 更高呼召
飛得更高 超越搖滾
猶如絕代旋律
我看破塵俗 確鑿不移
更高 更高 更高 更多一點
煙消雲散前我願看清
真相就在明處
總有一天 我會尋獲所覓

B2:
Fame and money, the gods I had before me
Tore ’em down cause I don’t need them now
I have found
名譽金錢 曾如諸神在面前
盡都拆毁 因不再是我需要
我已尋獲

C2:
Higher reason higher meaning
Take me higher, bring me deep into the fold
I’ve been praying for a chance to start things over
To make amends and shoot for gold
Nothing we can build will stand the test of time
Shooting for the stars when we are in our primes
A shining vessel, cause I can’t wait to see how it plays out
更高理想 更高意義
領我高飛 融入同群
我一直祈求機會 重新開始
彌補往昔 爭取金牌
人類建造經不起時間考驗
趁壯年時立下宏願
閃亮容器 期待發揮極致

C3:
Higher wishing higher dreaming
Test the waters, settling into my role
I’ll be raving on and on about my journey
I’ve taken hold I won’t let go
更高願望 更高夢想
試水探索 演活角色
暢所欲言 回味旅程
我已抓緊 永不放手

Life is like a play I’m taking center stage
Acting out my life according to the Way
I’ve found the reason,
Don’t have to search don’t have to run
No denying he’s the one
Living out all of my days
with love
人生如戲 我站在舞台中央
按活道行事為人
我尋獲理想
不必搜索 不必馳騁
毋庸置疑 認定了他
渡過餘生
憑著愛

A2 (Last phrase):
As I started growin’ kinda older
Became just a little bit more wiser
Something greater was fallin’ in reach
當我韶華老去
變得更聰明睿智
偉大結局 觸手可及

Aidan 的分享
【Higher Purpose】創作意境

大家或許也曾聽過,Vessel 叔叔上錫安教會前,是一位正要飛黃騰達的年青人。但到底,有甚麼驅使他放棄屬世的成功,此後定意謙卑服事神的家呢?故事,源於1991年某日,他遇上了日華牧師,一位充滿神啟示的受膏者。當日,日華牧師與他傾談一番後,他由衷驚嘆,日華牧師真是神人啊!經過這一晚,他往後的人生便完全改寫,放下了屬世的名成利就。只因,他看見人生的更高使命:跟隨神的受膏者,勝過作任何事。.

31年過去,Vessel 叔叔與他的太太一直跟隨著日華牧師,同心成就錫安的傳奇。其實,不單是 Vessel 叔叔,日華牧師身上的恩膏,確有一種吸引力,讓很多有識之士,也願意虛己跟隨。今天,我們三生有幸,能遇上這位受膏者,與他活在同一世代!不論我們是否才華橫溢、滿腔理想,或是懷抱個人的人生藍圖,最重要的是,放下自我、放棄屬世的錯誤,選擇單純地跟隨日華牧師。如此,我們定必發現,這樣活著,才活得最有價值,這樣走著,才能走上神對我們的最高呼召!

以賽亞書 55:9
天怎樣高過地,照樣,我的道路高過你們的道路;我的意念高過你們的意念。
