歌詞
萬世之宗，高居寶座榮耀中，
An cient of Days,who sit test throne in glory,
萬方之民眾，叩拜敬而恭；
To Thee all kness are bent,all voice es pray;
有世以來，萬靈一向蒙恩寵，
Thy love has blessed the wide world`s womdrous story,
真理與生命，自古常賜豐。
With light and life since Eden`s dawning day.
聖哉天父，歷代導引眾選民，
O holy Father,who hast led Thy children,
雲柱與火柱，晝夜作南針；
In all the ages with the fire and could;
經過紅海，經過曠野與山林，
Through seas dry shod,through weary wastes bewil d`ring,
我眾行世路，求賜指導恩。
To Thee in rev`rentlove,our hearts are bowed.
聖哉耶穌，萬民救主和平王，
O holy Jesus,Prince of peace and Saviour,
大愛奇妙力，寧息紛爭浪；
To Thee we owe the peace that still prevails;
福音到處，凶頑強暴化馴良，
Stilling the rude wills of men`s wild be haviour,
和平臨世界，賴主恩浩蕩。
And calming passion`s fierce and stormy gales.
聖哉聖靈，賞賜我眾新生命，
O holy Ghost,the Lord and the Life giver,
振我眾精神，感我眾內心；
Thine is the quick`ning power that gives in crease,
浩如河江，流來活力何豐盈，
From Thee have flowed,as from a pleasant river,
多歡欣快樂，多安慰和平。
Our plenty,wealth,prosperity,and peace.
聖哉三一，我眾虔誠同屈膝，
O Triune God,with heart and voice a doring,
讚美慈悲神，大愛冠一切；
Praise we the goodness that doth crown our days;
恭敬求主，來日施恩如往日，
Pray we that Thou wilt hear us,still imploring,
頒賜無量愛，施行奇妙力。（阿 們）
Thy love and favour,kept to us always.（A-men）
