And can it be that I should gain

I learned a classic hymn (written by Charles Wes­ley, 1738 and Thom­as Camp­bell, 1825) in Petersham Baptist Church weeks ago.
几周前在彼得汉浸信会学会了一首由查尔斯卫斯理和托马斯参贝尔谱写于俩个世纪前的古典赞美诗-奇异的爱，怎能如此？
And can it be that I should gainAn interest in the Savior’s blood?Died He for me, who caused His pain—For me, who Him to death pursued?Amazing love! How can it be,That Thou, my God, shouldst die for me?Amazing love! How can it be,That Thou, my God, shouldst die for me?
怎能如此, 像我這樣罪人, 也蒙寶血救贖大恩?主為我受痛苦鞭傷, 也為我死在十架上?奇異的愛, 怎能如此, 我主我神為我受死?
’Tis mystery all: th’Immortal dies:Who can explore His strange design?In vain the firstborn seraph triesTo sound the depths of love divine.’Tis mercy all! Let earth adore,Let angel minds inquire no more.’Tis mercy all! Let earth adore; Let angel minds inquire no more.
何等奇妙! 永生主竟受死! 有誰能解釋這奧祕?神聖之愛, 廣闊深長, 最高天使也難測量,上主憐憫, 超過猜想, 世人都當敬拜景仰.
He left His Father’s throne aboveSo free, so infinite His grace—Emptied Himself of all but love,And bled for Adam’s helpless race:’Tis mercy all, immense and free,For O my God, it found out me!’Tis mercy all, immense and free,For O my God, it found out me!
我主離開天上寶座榮華.無量恩惠白白賜下,謙卑虛已, 顯彰慈愛, 流血救贖亞當後代,恩典憐愛, 無邊無涯, 罪人像我, 竟蒙厚愛.
Long my imprisoned spirit lay,Fast bound in sin and nature’s night;Thine eye diffused a quickening ray—I woke, the dungeon flamed with light;My chains fell off, my heart was free,I rose, went forth, and followed Thee.My chains fell off, my heart was free,I rose, went forth, and followed Thee.
我靈受困, 多年在牢獄中;被罪包圍, 黑暗重重;主眼發出復活榮光, 我靈甦醒, 滿室光明!枷鎖脫落, 心靈獲釋, 我就起來跟隨主行.

Still the small inward voice I hear,That whispers all my sins forgiven;Still the atoning blood is near,That quenched the wrath of hostile Heaven.I feel the life His wounds impart;I feel the Savior in my heart.I feel the life His wounds impart;I feel the Savior in my heart.
不再定罪, 心中除盡憂愁;我擁有主並他所有.主內生活讓他居首, 穿起義袍聖潔無垢;坦然無懼到寶座前, 藉主救贖, 獲得冠冕.
No condemnation now I dread;Jesus, and all in Him, is mine;Alive in Him, my living Head,And clothed in righteousness divine,Bold I approach th’eternal throne,And claim the crown, through Christ my own.Bold I approach th’eternal throne,And claim the crown, through Christ my own.

Farewell, My First Semester!

The IBUS6001 test was an open-book test held in Maclaurin Hall and finished at 8:12 pm tonite :)

今晚八点十二分结束了在麦克洛林会堂的国际策略考试，开卷，

I was standing in a queue waiting for the security bus at the Fisher Library and realized that my first semester in Syd Uni finally came to an end with a very complicated feeling.

我在菲舍图书馆前排队等学校发往车站的安全巴士的时候，意识到在悉尼大学的第一学期已经结束了。心情略微复杂。
