大本458首,你若不压橄榄成渣
你若不压橄榄成渣，它就不能成油；你若不投葡萄入榨，它就不能变成酒；你若不炼哪哒成膏，它就不流芬芳；主，我这人是否也要受你许可的创伤？
Olives that have known no pressure
No oil can bestow;
If the grapes escape the winepress,
Cheering wine can never flow;
Spikenard only through the crushing,
Fragrance can diffuse.
Shall I then, Lord, shrink from suff'ring
Which Thy love for me would choose?
Each blow I suffer
Is true gain to me.
In the place of what Thou takest
Thou dost give Thyself to me.

Each blow I suffer
Is true gain to me.
In the place of what Thou takest
Thou dost give Thyself to me.
每次的打击，都是真利益，如果你收去的东西，你以自己来代替。
你是否要鼓我心弦，发出你的音乐？是否要使音乐甘甜，须有你爱来苦虐？是否当我下倒之时，才能识“爱”的心？我是不怕任何损失，若你让我来相亲。
Do my heart-strings need Thy stretching,
Songs divine to prove?
Do I need for sweetest music
Cruel treatment of Thy love?
Lord, I fear no deprivation
If it draws to Thee;
I would yield in full surrender
All Thy heart of love to see.
Each blow I suffer
Is true gain to me.
In the place of what Thou takest
Thou dost give Thyself to me.

主，我惭愧，因我感觉总是保留自己，虽我也曾受你雕削，我却感觉受强逼！主，你能否照你喜乐，没有顾忌去行，不顾我的感觉如何，只是要求你欢欣？
I'm ashamed, my Lord, for seeking
Self to guard alway;
Though Thy love has done its stripping,
Yet I've been compelled this way.
Lord, according to Thy pleasure
Fully work on me;
Heeding not my human feelings,
Only do what pleases Thee.
Each blow I suffer
Is true gain to me.

如果你我所有苦乐不能完全相同，要你喜乐，须我负轭，我就愿意多苦痛；主，我全心要你所要，不惜任何代价；你若喜悦，并得荣耀，我背任何十字架。
If Thy mind and mine should differ,
Still pursue Thy way;
If Thy pleasure means my sorrow,
Still my heart shall answer, "Yea!"
'Tis my deep desire to please Thee,
Though I suffer loss;
E'en though Thy delight and glory
Mean that I endure the cross.
Each blow I suffer
Is true gain to me.

我要赞美，再要赞美，赞美何等甘甜；虽我边赞美边流泪，甘甜比前更加添；能有什么比你更好？比你喜悦可宝？主，我只有一个祷告：你能加增，我减少。
Oh, I'll praise Thee, e'en if weeping
Mingle with my song.
Thine increasing sweetness calls forth
Grateful praises all day long.
Thou hast made Thyself more precious
Than all else to me:
Thou increase and I decrease, Lord-
This is now my only plea.
Each blow I suffer
Is true gain to me.
In the place of what Thou takest
Thou dost give Thyself to me.
