Song: Once Again

I have just looked through my own prepared worship music scores, and I have found a translation I did of the song Once Again by Matt Redman more than 5 years ago. I wonder if anyone else has ever translated the song into Chinese, but anyway just thought I will share it here — English first then Chinese.

Once Again:
by Matt Redman © 1995 Kingsway’s Thankyou Music

1:
Jesus Christ, I think upon Your sacrifice
You became nothing, poured out to death
Many times, I wonder at Your gift of life
And I’m in that place once again I’m in that place once again

Chorus:
And once again I look upon the Cross where You died
I’m humbled by Your mercy and I’m broken inside
Once again I thank You,
Once again I pour out my life

2:
Now You are exalted to the highest place
King of the heavens, where one day I’ll bow
But for now, I marvel at this saving grace
And I’m full of praise once again
I’m full of praise once again

Bridge:
Thank You for the cross, Thanks You for the cross
Thank You for the cross, my friend

In Chinese — my own translation:

又在此尊崇

1:
主耶稣,我为袮舍身而深思
袮降世为贫民,为世人献身
许多时候永生之赐使我惊异
促我又在此赞颂
促我又在此赞颂

副歌:
当再次仰望袮在十架上的牺牲
我深感袮慈恩大德而谦然屈服
再次感谢袮
再次向袮献上所有

2:
如今袮被高举为宇宙之王
当站在袮面前,我下拜袮为王
可现在,袮救恩值得我钦颂
促我充溢着尊崇
促我充溢着尊崇

桥梁:
感谢袮慈悲
感谢袮恩典
感谢袮为我献身
