It's About The Cross




It's not just about the manger
Where the baby lay
不只是關於那個嬰孩所躺臥的馬槽
It's not all about the angels 
Who sang for him that day
不全是關於那天為他而歌唱的天使

It's not all about the shepherds
Or the bright and shining star
也不全是關於牧羊人或那顆明亮閃耀的星星
It's not all about the wisemen
Who travelled from afar
更不全是關於那些從遠方跋涉而來的智者

It's about the cross
而是關於十字架
It's about my sin
關於我的罪
It's about how Jesus came to be born once
關於耶穌如何降生
So that we could be born again
以至於我們能重生

It's about the stone
That was rolled away
是關於墓前移開的石頭
So that you and I could have real life someday
以至於你我有一天能獲得真實的生命
It's about the cross
是關於十字架

It's not just about the good things
In this life I've done
不只是關於此生我曾做過的好事
It's not all about the treasures
Or the trophies that I've won
不全是關於我所贏得的珍寶或獎品
It's not about the righteousness
That I find within
也不是關於我所自覺的正義
It's all about the precious blood
That saved me from my sin
而是關於那救我脫離罪的寶血

The beginning of the story is wonderful and great
這故事的開始是奇妙與偉大的
But it's the ending that can save you and that's why we celebrate
但能拯救你的是故事的結尾,而那就是我們慶賀的原因

It's about the cross
是關於十字架
It's about my sin
關於我的罪
It's about how Jesus came to be born once
關於耶穌如何降生
So that we could be born again
以至於我們能重生

It's about God's love
Nailed to a tree
是關於上帝的摯愛被釘於十字架上
It's about how every drop of blood that flowed from Him when it should have been me
是關於每一滴祂代替我所流的血

It's about the stone

That was rolled away

是關於墓前移開的石頭

So that you and I could have real life someday

以至於你我有一天能獲得真實的生命
So that you and I could have real life someday
以至於你我有一天能獲得真實的生命

It's about the cross
是關於十字架
It's about the cross
關於十字架
