雅各書要理問答 第605問:Abide with Me,唐牧師為何對這詩歌印象深刻❓

大概8歲時,主日學老師講一段話我很受感動,他說,「小朋友你們唱過這首歌嗎?」「有啊,老師,我們唱過了:日向西沉了,願主與我同在。」「小朋友,你知道這首歌誰寫的嗎?為什麼他這麼寫呢?」「不知道,我就盼望這首歌,成為我們每天下午唱的,『太陽下去,晚上很暗,我很怕;主啊,祢與我同在。』他大概就是怕晚上才寫的。」老師說,「不是!這首詩歌是一個青年人寫的;他讀書讀得很好,計劃一大堆;當他要考大學時,去給醫生檢查,醫生對他說,『很對不起,你不能讀大學,因為你患了痲瘋病。』那時無藥可醫,就把他帶到一座痲瘋島上去等死;他在那島上,想到自己計劃都不能成,偉大理想與青春完全付諸東流,有一天太陽下山時,他說,『主啊,祢與我同在吧,因為我的生命就快要結束了。』」我不知道老師講的是不是對的,我也沒有再查考這首詩歌的作者,但是這是我大概8歲時聽的,現在講給你聽,以後你再講給別人聽,你就說,「唐牧師講的;唐牧師說是他的老師講的,不知道講得對不對。」以後可能你們有聖樂的人去查出來,可以糾正一下,(註)我是沒有機會再查到這個事,但那時候讓我印象深刻!如果我的計劃是很偉大的,如果我的健康青春正處於黃金時代,但是忽然怪病臨到我身上,我沒有辦法兌現我的計劃,沒有辦法實踐我的理想,那怎麼辦呢?「日斜西山,願主與我同在。」

你們的生命是什麼,你知道嗎?你很驕傲啊,你不但在上帝面前不謙卑,你還很狂傲!你有多少年日,可以做多少工作?你要賺多少的錢,你賺錢以後要做什麼?如果上帝給你很多錢,你又要做什麼?你今天的計劃,是把上帝的計劃放在一邊,「上帝啊,我先計劃,你不必管我。」上帝說,「你知道你的生命在哪裡嗎?你的生命出現片時,就像雲霧一樣,消散了。」(參 雅4:13-14)

註:〈Abide with Me 求主同住〉by Rev. Henry Francis Lyte(1793-1847, 1847)

〈路24:29〉「他們卻強留祂,說:『時候晚了,日頭已經平西了,請你同我們住下罷!』耶穌就進去,要同他們住下。」

原文歌詞:

1. Abide with me; fast falls the eventide;

The darkness deepens; Lord with me abide.

When other helpers fail and comforts flee,

Help of the helpless, O abide with me.

2. Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day;

Earth's joys grow dim; its glories pass away;

Change and decay in all around I see;

O Thou who changest not, abide with me.

3. Not a brief glance I beg, a passing word,

But as Thou dwell'st with Thy disciples, Lord,

Familiar, condescending, patient, free.

Come not to sojourn, but abide with me.

4. Come not in terror, as the King of kings,

But kind and good, with healing in Thy wings;

Tears for all woes, a heart for every plea.

Come, Friend of sinners, thus abide with me.

5. Thou on my head in early youth didst smile,

And though rebellious and perverse meanwhile,

Thou hast not left me, oft as I left Thee.

On to the close, O Lord, abide with me.

6. I need Thy presence every passing hour.

What but Thy grace can foil the tempter's power?

Who, like Thyself, my guide and stay can be?

Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me.

7. I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless;

Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness.

Where is death's sting? Where, grave, thy victory?

I triumph still, if Thou abide with me.

8. Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes;

Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies.

Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee;

In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me.
