最後的故鄉 - 馬偕之歌
MusicMike (MM)
介紹
Once again I promise you, though it means suffering unto death, I wish to spend my life here,
in this place I have chosen, to be used of you. May God help me... George Leslie Mackay
我再一次與你立誓，就是痛苦至死，我一生也要在此地……被你差用，願上帝幫助我。...馬偕博士
George MacKay was a young Canadian who came to Taiwan to share God's love in Jesus Christ with us. Only because of God's love that one white man could love a foreign land so much and give away his life generously.
The lyrics are from his epitaph. I was so touched by his spirit. May we all can find and believe in the invisible power behind that motivated him, to love, to live and die for, the One and Only creator of the universe.
歌詞
我全心所疼惜的台灣啊! 我的青春攏總獻乎你。
我一生的歡喜攏在此。 我全心所疼惜的台灣啊!
我心未凍割離的台灣啊! 我的人生攏總獻乎你。
我一生的快樂攏在此。 我心未凍割離的台灣啊!
我在雲霧中看見山嶺， 從雲中隙孔觀望全地，
波浪大海遙遠的對岸， 我意愛此眺望無息。
盼望我人生的續尾站， 在大湧拍岸的響聲中，
在竹林搖動的蔭影裏， 找到我最後的故鄉。
