We Cannot Measure How You Heal (Tune: Ye Banks and Braes; 3vv) [with lyr...

1 We cannot measure how You heal
or answer every sufferer’s prayer,
yet we believe your grace responds
where faith and doubt unite to care.
Your hands, though bloodied on the cross,
survive to hold and heal and warn,
to carry all through death to life
and cradle children yet unborn.

2 The pain that will not go away,
the guilt that clings from things long past,
the fear of what the future holds,
are present as if meant to last.
But present too is love which tends
the hurt we never hoped to find,
the private agonies inside,
the memories that haunt the mind.

3 So some have come who need Your help
and some have come to make amends,
as hands which shaped and saved the world
are present in the touch of friends.
Lord, let Your Spirit meet us here
to mend the body, mind and soul,
to disentangle peace from pain
and make Your broken people whole.

1 我們無法衡量你如何醫治，

或回應每一位受難者的禱告，

但我們相信，祢的恩典會回應，

當信心與疑惑交織成關懷時。

你的雙手，雖在十字架上沾滿鮮血，

卻依然存在，扶持、醫治、警示，

帶領眾人渡過死亡，走向生命，

並撫慰尚未出生的兒女。

2 揮之不去的痛苦，

對往事揮之不去的愧疚，

對未來的恐懼，

都彷彿注定要持續存在。

但愛也同樣存在，它撫慰著

我們從未想過的傷痛，

內心深處的痛苦，

縈繞心頭的回憶。

3 因此，有些人來尋求你的幫助，

有些人來彌補過失，

如同那雙塑造並拯救世界的雙手，

如今在朋友的觸摸中。

主啊，願祢的靈在此與我們相遇，

療癒我們的身心靈，

將平安從痛苦中解脫，

並使祢破碎的百姓得以完整。
