《恶魔拉法颂(恶魔变奏曲)》里可爱玛利亚唱的歌。。。

amaging grace(明日恩典)改编自Amazing grace (奇异恩典)

《Amazing Grace》中文翻译为《奇异恩典》,也有人称《天赐恩宠》,是美国最脍炙人口的一首乡村福音歌曲,是美国人最喜爱的一首赞美诗,也是全世界基督徒都会唱的一首歌,被奉为基督教圣歌。ROV. John NEWTON作于1779年,开始是一首传统的民谣,或黑人灵歌,它表达了宗教的忠诚,其中包含着一个平淡但是极富深意的赎罪的故事,它成了基督徒每次祈祷忏悔时必唱的曲目,后来它流行越来越广,超越了宗教,成了一首真正意义上的流行歌曲,成为人们祈求和平的经典歌曲,是人民精神世界的赞歌,歌的主题和《圣经》的主旨相符:忏悔、感恩、赎罪、重生,现在在任何庄严隆重的场合、在仪式上、在很多流行音乐唱片里、在国家级的典礼以及在美国前总统里根的葬礼上,你都能听到这首圣洁,祥和,庄重,优美的歌曲。

英语原文:

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound!

That saved a wretch like me!

I once was lost but now I am found,

Was blind but now I see.

Was grace that taught my heart to fear

And grace my fears relieved;

How precious did that grace appear

The hour I first believed!

Through many dangers, toils, and snares,

I have already come;

This grace has brought me safe thus far,

And grace will lead me home.

The Lord has promised good to me,

His word my hope secures;

He will my shield and portion be,

As long as life endures.

Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail,

And mortal life shall cease;

I shall possess, within the vail,

A life of joy and peace.

The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,

The sun forbear to shine;

But God, who called me here below,

Will be forever mine.
