耶穌,我來
“Jesus, I come”
一 脫離捆綁、憂愁與黑影, 耶穌,我來!耶穌,我來!進入自由、喜樂與光明,耶穌,我來就你!
脫離疾病,進入你健全; 脫離貧乏,進入你富源;脫離罪惡,進入你救援,耶穌,我來就你!
二 脫離失敗羞恥的結果,耶穌,我來!耶穌,我來!進入十架榮耀的收穫,耶穌,我來就你!
脫離痛苦,進入你安寧;脫離風波,進入你平靜;脫離怨歎,進入你誦稱,耶穌,我來就你!
三 脫離狂傲不平的血氣,耶穌,我來!耶穌,我來! 進入完全有福的旨意, 耶穌,我來就你!
脫離自己,住在你愛裏;脫離絕望,等候你來提, 離地上騰,如鷹展雙翼,耶穌,我來就你!
四 脫離撒但死亡的權勢,耶穌,我來!耶穌,我來!進入基督生命的恩賜,耶穌,我來就你!
脫離敗壞無底的深淵,進入護庇安歇的家園,永永遠遠瞻仰你榮顏,耶穌,我來就你!
「所以我們只管坦然無懼的 、來到施恩的寶座前 、為要得憐恤 、蒙恩惠作隨時的幫助 。
」(希伯來書四16)
『隨時的幫助』更好是繙作『合時的幫助』,就是合乎時需的幫助,也就是正在有需要的時候,所得到的幫助,這需要我們在靈裏隨時禱告摸著神的寶座,接觸神的自己才能得到。
我們禱告上最大的幫手就是主耶穌基督,祂是我們在父那裏的中保,我們的大祭司,祂現在主要的職務,就是替我們在父前代求。祂從我們手裏把我們不完全的祈禱接過去,將其中的污穢潔淨了,錯誤更正了,然後用自己的名義,藉贖罪的功績和正直,到父面前去索取答應。弟兄姊妹,你對於禱告已經灰心了麼?快不要這樣。你的中保已經替你取得答應了,勝利已經在路上了。如果祂看見你已經放棄了祈求,這要使祂多麼憂愁、多麼失望呢!祂已經為你進到神的內室,已經將你的名字用兩手遞了上去;報好信的使者也在路上了,聖靈只在等候你信靠的時候,將寶座前答應的回聲 ─「已成了」─ 輕聲報在你心裏。── 宣信

Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need. (Hebrews 4:16)
Out of my bondage, sorrow, and night, Jesus, I come, Jesus, I come;
Into Thy freedom, gladness, and light, Jesus, I come to Thee;
Out of my sickness, into Thy health, Out of my want and into Thy wealth,
Out of my sin and into Thyself, Jesus, I come to Thee.
Out of my shameful failure and loss, Jesus, I come, Jesus, I come;
Into the glorious gain of Thy cross, Jesus, I come to Thee.
Out of earth’s sorrows into Thy balm, Out of life’s storms and into Thy calm,
Out of distress to jubilant psalm, Jesus, I come to Thee.
Out of unrest and arrogant pride, Jesus, I come, Jesus, I come;
Into Thy blessèd will to abide, Jesus, I come to Thee.
Out of myself to dwell in Thy love, Out of despair into raptures above,
Upward for aye on wings like a dove, Jesus, I come to Thee.
Out of the fear and dread of the tomb,Jesus, I come, Jesus, I come;
Into the joy and light of Thy throne, Jesus, I come to Thee.
Out of the depths of ruin untold, Into the peace of Thy sheltering fold,
Ever Thy glorious face to behold, Jesus, I come to Thee.
