Amazing grace How sweet the sound That saved a wretch 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 Chorus: My chains are gone I've been set free My God, my Savior has ransomed 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
Chourus(x2)
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
I'’m at a loss for words, there’’s nothing to say I sit in silence wondering what led me to this place How did my heart become so lifeless and cold Where did the passion go?
When all my efforts seem like chasing wind I'’ve used up all my strength and there’’s nothing left to give I'’ve lost the feeling and I'’m down to the core Can'’t fake it anymore
Here I am at the end I'’m in need of resurrection Only you can take this empty shell and raise it from the dead What I'’ve lost to the world what seems far beyond redemption You can take the pieces in your hand and make me whole again
I'’m at a loss for words, there’’s nothing to say I'’ve used up all my strength and there’’s nothing left to give How did my heart become so lifeless and cold Can'’t fake it anymore
Here I am once again I'’m in need of resurrection Only you can take this empty shell and raise it from the dead What I'’ve lost to the world what seems far beyond redemption You can take the pieces in your hand and make me whole again
You can take the pieces in your hand and make me whole again

Be careful little feet where you go For it's the little feet behind you That are sure to follow
It's a slow fade When you give yourself away It's a slow fade When black and white are turned to gray
And thoughts invade, choices are made A price will be paid When you give yourself away People never crumble in a day
It's a slow fade It's a slow fade
Be careful little ears what you hear When flattering leads to compromises The end is always near
Be careful little lips what you say For empty words and promises Leave broken hearts astray
It's a slow fade When you give yourself away It's a slow fade When black and white are turned to gray
And thoughts invade, choices are made A price will be paid When you give yourself away People never crumble in a day
The journey from your mind to your hands Is shorter than you're thinking Be careful if you think you stand You just might be sinking
It's a slow fade When you give yourself away It's a slow fade When black and white are turned to gray
And thoughts invade, choices are made A price will be paid When you give yourself away
People never crumble in a day Daddies never crumble in a day Families never crumble in a day
Oh, be careful little eyes what you see Oh, be careful little eyes what you see For the Father up above is looking down in love Oh, be careful little eyes what you see
Be Thou my vision, O Lord of my heart Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art Thou my best thought by day or by night Waking or sleeping Thy presence my light Be thou my wisdom and Thou my true word I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord Thou my great Father, I , Thy true son Thou in me dwelling and I with Thee one Riches I heed not nor man's emptly praise Thou mine inheritance now and always Thou and thou only first in my heart High King of heaven my treasure Thou are High King of heaven my victory won May I reach heaven's joys, O bright heaven's Sun Heart of my own heart whatever befall Still be my vision O Ruler of all

When peace like a river attendeth my way When sorrows like sea billows roll Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say
It is well, It is well with my soul. It is well with my soul
It is well, It is well with my soul. My sin, oh the bliss of this glorious thought My sin, not in part, but the whole Has been nailed to the cross So I bear it no more Praise The Lord, praise The Lord, oh my soul.
And Lord, haste the day when my faith shall be sight The clouds be rolled back as a scroll The trump shall resound and The Lord shall descend Even so, it is well with my soul.
This might hurt It’s not safe But I know that I’ve gotta make a change I don’t care If I break At least I’ll be feeling something ‘Cause just ok Is not enough Help me fight through the nothingness of life
I don’t wanna go through the motions I don’t wanna go one more day Without Your all consuming passion inside of me I don’t wanna spend my whole life asking What if I had given everything? Instead of going through the motions
No regrets Not this time I’m gonna let my heart defeat my mind Let Your love Make me whole I think I’m finally feeling something
Take me all the way Take me all the way Take me all the way
When I am down, and oh my soul, so weary. When troubles come, and my heart burdened be. Then I am still and wait here in the silence. Until You come and sit awhile with me.
You raise me up so I can stand on mountains. You raise me up to walk on stormy seas. I am strong when I am on your shoulders. You raise me up to more than I can be.
You raise me up so I can stand on mountains. You raise me up to walk on stormy seas. I am strong when I am on your shoulders. You raise me up to more than I can be.
There is no life, no life without its hunger. Each restless heart beats so imperfectly. But when you come and I am filled with wonder. Sometimes I think I glimpse eternity.
You raise me up so I can stand on mountains. You raise me up to walk on stormy seas. I am strong when I am on your shoulders. You raise me up to more than I can be.
You raise me up so I can stand on mountains. You raise me up to walk on stormy seas. I am strong when I am on your shoulders. You raise me up to more than I can be.
There are days when I feel The best of me is ready to begin (the end) Then there's (the) days when I feel I'm letting go and soaring on the wind 'Cause I've learned in laughter or in pain How to survive!
I get on my knees! (x2) There I am before the Love That changes me See I don't know how But there's power When I'm on my knees
I can be in a crowd Or by myself and almost anywhere When I feel there's a need To talk with God He is Emmanuel When I close my eyes, no darkness there There's only light!
I get on my knees (x2) There I am before the Love that changes me See I don't know how, but there's power In the blue skies, in the midnight When I'm on my knees I get on my knees (x2) There I am before the Love That changes me See I don't know how, but there's power When I'm on my, oh, when I'm on my When I'm on my knees
Songwriters: James, Brett; Lindsey, Hillary; Sampson, Gordie; She was driving last Friday on her way to Cincinnati On a snow white Christmas Eve Going home to see her Mama and her Daddy With the baby in the backseat
Fifty miles to go and she was running low On faith and gasoline It'd been a long hard year
She had a lot on her mind and she didn't pay attention She was going way too fast Before she knew it she was spinning On a thin black sheet of glass
She saw both their lives flash before her eyes She didn't even have time to cry She was so scared She threw her hands up in the air
Jesus, take the wheel Take it from my hands ?Cause I can't do this on my own
I'm letting go So give me one more chance To save me from this road I'm on Jesus, take the wheel
It was still getting colder when she made it to the shoulder And the car came to a stop She cried when she saw that baby in the backseat Sleeping like a rock
And for the first time in a long time She bowed her head to pray She said I'm sorry for the way I've been living my life
I know I've got to change So from now on tonight
Jesus, take the wheel Take it from my hands ?Cause I can't do this on my own
I'm letting go So give me one more chance To save me from this road I'm on
Oh Jesus, take the wheel Oh, I'm letting go
So give me one more chance Save me from this road I'm on From this road I'm on Jesus, take the wheel Oh, take it, take it from me Oh, why, ooh

但是,在基督教里边,上帝对国王有一种威吓作用,你如果欺负老百姓,镇压穷人或对没有钱的人不公,迫害反对派,你死了要去地狱。这个功能哲学家孔夫子是 没有的。这就是所谓宗教的功能。但是基督教有一些别的宗教没有的,比如说他无条件地禁止一些行为(十戒)。为什么基督教发达的地方经济也发达?这有很多原 因,我刚才只讲了前一个原因。我们在做生意的中间,这信教的人有一个取之有道的承诺,他不会去搞你的鬼。而信教的人平均来说这个承诺比较可信。所以基督教 文明的国家大公司可以发展起来。没有基督教文明,只有小家族公司,大公司搞不起来。发达国家有政府和商界形成共识的best business practice codes(最佳商业行为准则),共十条,搞财务和管理的专家都知道,这对大公司的公司治理起关键作用。但最佳商业行为准则源自圣经的十戒。
