[lthy (給我一杯瑪格麗特)]

跟大家分享一首歌，這是我在聖誕夜晚上第一次聽到的。
旋律很優美，歌詞也很感動人。

I dreamed I went to heaven / And you were there with me; /
We walked upon the streets of gold beside the crystal sea.
我夢見我到天堂，你也跟我在那裡，
我們走在水晶海旁佈滿黃金的街上，


We heard the angels singing / Then someone called your name.
We turned and saw a young man running / And he was smiling as he came.
我們聽到天使唱歌，然後有人叫了你的名字，
我們轉身看到一個年輕人跑來，面帶笑容。


And he said, "Friend you may not know me now." / And then he said, "But wait,
他說：「朋友，你可能不記得我了」然後他說：「可是，
You used to teach my Sunday School / When I was only eight.
你以前曾教過我們的主日學，當時我只有八歲，
And every week you would say a prayer / Before the class would start.
你每禮拜在上課前，會帶我們禱告。
And one day when you said that prayer, / I asked Jesus in my heart."
有一天，當你帶領禱告時，我祈求耶穌在我心裏。」

Chorus:

Thank you for giving to the Lord. / Iam a life that was changed.
Thank you for giving to the Lord. / I am so glad you gave.
（副歌）
感謝你奉獻給主，我的生命，就因此得到改變，
謝謝你奉獻給主，我真高興，你那時的付出。

Then another man stood before you / And said, "Remember the time
A missionary came to your church / And his pictures made you cry.
然後另外有一個人站在你前面，他說：「記得有一次，
有一位宣教師來到你教會，他帶來的相片使你感動流淚，
You didn't have much money, but you gave it anyway.
Jesus took the gift you gave / And that's why I am here today."
你沒有太多錢，可是你還是奉獻了，耶穌使用你的禮物，
因此今天我得以站在這裡。

（Repeat Chorus）

One by one they came far as the eye could see.
Each life somehow touched by your generosity.
數不清的人，一個接一個的來了，
每個生命都是被你寬大的心所影響，
Little things that you had done, sacrifices made,
Unnoticed on the earth / In heaven, now proclaimed.
那些你所作的小事、犧牲，在世上沒有被人注意，
現在，卻在天國被宣揚出來。

And I know up in heaven / You're not supposed to cry.
But I am almost sure there were tears in your eyes.
我知道在天國，我們不應該會流淚，
可是我幾乎、確定看到你含著眼淚，
As Jesus took your hand and you stood before the Lord.
He said, "My child, look around you. / Great is your reward."
當耶穌牽著你的手，你站在主前，祂說：
「我的孩子，看看你周圍，你的獎賞是大的。」

（Repeat Chorus）
