国度要求，标准严格，远超律法所有要求；神的要求无论大小，无一比这高而难就。
Requirements of the Kingdom are
Much stricter than the law's decrees;
No other requisite of God
Has ever higher been than these.

天国近了，“应当悔改”，这是国度首一要求；我们心思必须转变，向神一边全面转投。
"Repent, the Kingdom has come near,"
This is the Kingdom's first demand;
A change of mind we all must have
And on God's side must firmly stand.

我们要进诸天国度，必须有那超凡的义；乃是出乎大能生命，远非律法所能为力。
That we the Kingdom enter in,
Surpassing righteousness we need,
Exceeding that which is of law;
From life alone it must proceed.

我们要进诸天国度，天父旨意必须遵行；不是照我心愿所选，乃是照祂心意所定。
That we the Kingdom enter in,
We need to do the Father's will,
Not by our choice to work or act
But His one purpose to fulfill.

我们要进诸天国度，必须变成孩童样式；谦卑、简单、顺服、易改，毫无自满、自恃、自是。
That we the Kingdom enter in,
A simple child we must become-
Adjustable, obedient, meek-
And everything of self o'ercome.

诸天国度甚至要求我们与神一样完全；必须完全合这标准，国度实际才能实践。
The Heav'nly Kingdom e'en requires
That we as God should perfect be;
This standard we must fully meet
That we may share its ecstasy.

国度乃是神的掌权，需要与神性质相合；只有借着神的生命，才能进这神圣之国。
The Kingdom is the reign of God
To match His nature is required;
'Tis only by the life of God
The Kingdom's entry is acquired.

国度乃是属天管治，必须合于属天情形；若要与主有分这国，唯有借着属天生命。
The Kingdom is the rule of heav'n;
With heaven's state we must accord;
'Tis only by the life of heav'n
That we may share it with the Lord.
