　　闻主之名 犹如甘露

　　It soothes⁴ his sorrows, heals his wounds and drives away his fear

　　慰我疾苦 给我安宁

　　Must jesus bear the cross alone and all the world go free

　　以己一身 救赎世人

　　No, there's a cross for everyone and there's a cross for me.

　　舍弃自我 跟随我主

　　When we've been here ten thousand years bright shining as the sun,
