지방교회 스토리

1- 세상 향유하고 주 잃으면 하루라도 살 가치 있나-
없어지는 세상 가운데서 안식 위로 찾을 수 있나
세상 향유하고 주 잃으-면 그 무엇이 네 맘 채우랴-
이 세상의 어떤 즐거움-도 주님과는 비교 못하리

2- 재물이나 애정 얻었어도 너의 명성 널리 퍼져도-
방황하는 너의 돛단배는 닻을 내릴 항구 없구나
너를 위해 죽은 주 잃으-면 그 무엇이 네 맘 채우랴-
이 세상의 어떤 즐거움-도 주님과는 비교 못하리

3- 구주 없는 세상 공허함뿐 죄악 고난 슬픔 눈물뿐-
구주 없는 영원 안에서는 끝이 없는 흑암 뿐이네
지금 잠시 살 수 있다 해-도 죽음 올 때 어찌하려나-
주님 없는 어두움 속에-서 영원토록 어찌하려나

4- 주 안에서 모든 것 얻으니 이 어떠한 즐거움인가-
사함받지 못할 죄악 없네 모든 근심 주가 감당해
네게 오직 주님 뿐이라-면 모든 것을 갖게 되리라-
주가 너의 모든 필요들-을 풍성하게 채우시리라

The church is the building up
Of all God’s chosen and redeemed,
Regenerated and transformed people,
The ultimate work of God,
His counterpart, the new man,
The seven golden lampstands,
God’s house on earth,
The Body of Christ,
The desire of God’s heart.

Praise the Lord! Philadelphia:
They hold fast to God’s Word,
Never denying His name,
Living in the local church,
Fellowshipping universally
On the ground of genuine oneness,
Constituting the Body of Christ.

Rise up! Grow in life!
Minister Christ to the nations,
Arrive at oneness—
Lord, have mercy,
We would see Your eternal purpose.
Keep us faithful
To recover and build up Your church.
