创造与救赎的神，
万有的作者，
万福的源头，
我景仰你
因你赐我能力认识你，
因你赐我理性与良心，
因你引导我来渴慕你；
我赞美你
因你在福音里启示你自己，
因你的心是怜恤的栖息地，
因你向我发出平安的意念，
因你的忍耐与仁慈，
因你浩瀚的怜悯。
你感动我的心来明白
罪人怎样蒙饶恕，
污秽怎样变圣洁，
贫穷怎样成富足。
愿我常在他们当中，就是
那些不仅听闻你且真知道你的人，
那些与你同行且以你为乐的人，
那些确信你的话语且从中找到生命的人。
让我常在圣灵的安慰与喜乐里
渴求现在的救恩，
渴求属灵的恩典与祝福，
渴求对我责任的看重，如同看重我的权利。
愿我珍视那单纯又虔诚的品格。
帮助我
在你面前如同在人面前那样真实，
在自称有信仰之前就有真实的信仰，
在进入教会之前离开这世界，
帮助我把情感系于天上的事，
帮助我躲避愚昧与空虚，
帮助我在领受恩典的同时也发出恩典，
帮助我预备自己行善、忍受邪恶的攻击。
哦 神哪，
愿耶稣的名在我里面得荣耀，
让我与这呼召相称，
我也要在祂里面。
A PRESENT SALVATION
CREATOR AND REDEEMER GOD,
Author of all existence,
source of all blessedness,
I adore thee
for making me capable of knowing thee,
for giving me reason and conscience,
for leading me to desire thee;
I praise thee
for the revelation of thyself in the gospel,
for thy heart as a dwelling place of pity,
for thy thoughts of peace towards me,
for thy patience and thy graciousness,
for the vastness of thy mercy.
Thou hast moved my conscience to know how
the guilty can be pardoned,
the unholy sanctified,
the poor enriched.
May I be always amongst those
who not only hear but know thee,
who walk with and rejoice in thee,
who take thee at thy word and find life there.
Keep me always longing
for a present salvation in Holy Spirit comforts and rejoicings,
for spiritual graces and blessings,
for help to value my duties as well as my privileges.
May I cherish simplicity and godly sincerity of character.
Help me to be in reality before thee as in appearance I am before men,
to be religious before I profess religion,
to leave the world before I enter the church,
to set my affections on things above,
to shun forbidden follies and vanities,
to be a dispenser as well as a partaker of grace,
to be prepared to bear evil as well as to do good.
O God, make me worthy of this calling,
that the name of Jesus may be glorified in me and I in him.
