你們要追求與眾人和睦， 並要追求聖潔； 

非聖潔沒有人能見主。(希伯來書 12:14)

儆醒禱告，時刻倚靠主，享主恩福

英文歌詞

1 

Take time to be holy, speak oft with thy Lord;

abide in Him always, and feed on His word.

Make friends of God’s children, help those who are weak,

forgetting in nothing His blessing to seek.

2 

Take time to be holy, the world rushes on;

spend much time in secret with Jesus alone.

By looking to Jesus, like Him thou shalt be;

thy friends in thy conduct His likeness shall see.

3 

Take time to be holy, let Him be thy guide,

and run not before Him, whatever betide.

In joy or in sorrow, still follow the Lord,

and, looking to Jesus, still trust in His word.

4 

Take time to be holy, be calm in thy soul,

each thought and each motive beneath His control.

Thus led by His Spirit to fountains of love,

thou soon shalt be fitted for service above.

中文歌詞

(一)

須用工夫成聖，常儆醒禱告；

常與主密相契，常領受主道。

與神兒女為友，助軟弱靈胞，

無論所做何事，當唯主是靠。

(二)

須用工夫成聖，息世上勞碌；

入密室朝見主，享我主恩福。

當仰望主耶穌，你就必像主，

親友因你行為，能看見耶穌。

(三)

須用工夫成聖，主引領你路；

一路與主同行，祂慈手扶助。

或福樂或困苦，仍跟隨我主，

定睛仰望耶穌，堅信我救主。

(四)

須用工夫成聖，使內心敬虔；

讓耶穌來掌管，你心思意念。

隨主聖靈引領，到愛之泉源，

就配作主門徒，事主到永遠。
