音乐咖啡厅:Amazing Grace-Chris Tomlin
Amazing grace
How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch 1 like me
I once was lost, but now I'm found
Was blind, but now I see
'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed
My chains are gone
I've been set free
My God, my Savior has ransomed 2 me
And like a flood His mercy reigns
Unending love, Amazing grace
The Lord has promised good to me
His word my hope secures
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures
The earth shall soon dissolve like snow
The sun forbear to shine
But God, Who called me here below
Will be forever mine
Will be forever mine
You are forever mine
歌手Chris Tomlin 介绍:
1972年生于TX州Grand Saline自小听着乡村音乐长大,并从他父亲那里学会了演奏吉他。9岁开始,他就把Jesus当作了他一生的救世主,14岁写了他的第一首颂歌。在90年代初Tomlin进入TAM大学学习medicine,在课余,他却很积极地参加了一个叫做Breakaway的校园内的Bible study group。随着这个组织的不断壮大,Tomlin也终于成为了其中的领袖人物并在集会上演奏他自己的歌曲。2001年,Tomlin发行了他的首张专辑The Noise We Make。2002年,Tomlin搬家到TX的Austin,成为了Austin's Stone Community Church的一名牧师,在那里他要经常主持1500人场次的集会。鉴于Tomlin不断扩展的听众群,他2006年发行的专辑取得了Billboard Chirstian榜No. 1和Billboard 200榜No. 15的好成绩,并为他带来了两项格莱美奖提名。即便是在音乐上取得了这样的成绩,Tomlin在面对媒体时也总是强调上天赋予他的任务比他的音乐更重要,他一直都在努力着用音乐来救赎人们的灵魂.
- You are really an ungrateful wretch to complain instead of thanking him.你不但不谢他,还埋怨他,真不知好歹。
- The dead husband is not the dishonoured wretch they fancied him.死去的丈夫不是他们所想象的不光彩的坏蛋。
