(Us)
D A
Beneath this mask—this smile I wear—
Bm F#m
Which tells the world that I’m okay,
G D
That I am strong and nothing in
Em A
My life can drag me down today,
D A
Beneath this mask hides loneliness,
Bm F#m
And questions: what is life all for?
G D
And worries and anxieties
Em A D
Like rain from heaven, pour and pour.

(Christ)
“Why do you struggle on your own?
Just come to Me, pour out and call,
The feeling of your weaknesses
I’m touched with—yet I conquered all.
As Spirit in your spirit I’m
Contactable, available,
I’ll make more home within your heart,
And heal by life your turbid soul.”

(Us)
Beneath this mask—this smile I wear—
I am a child longing for
A home where I feel safe and loved,
A people I can call my own,
Beneath this mask—a cry for help,
I’m drifting on a stormy sea,
I’m tossed about from wave to wave,
With no direction how to be.

(Christ)
“Why do you struggle on your own?
I’ll be your Good Samaritan,
I’ll pour the oil and the wine,
I’ll lead you to your home, the inn,
The household of the faith is where,
Your turbid soul will find true rest,
And I too find My resting place,
My Body, where I’m manifest."

What Things Were Gains to Me

Unto Him/I Am Coming (with Chords of a Man)

For just as the lightning comes forth from the east
and shines to the west
For just as the lightning comes forth from the east
and shines to the west
So will the coming of the Son of Man be
As the lightning comes forth from the east.

Come, Lord Jesus!
Grow in us!
Make us ready for Your coming!
Gain our hearts, our love, gain Your bride!
Make us those who bring You back!

Matthew 24:27 (EYPC 2019)

1. Laboring on Jesus, the good land so real,
Plowing and planting and watering the field.
He yields the produce of reality,
God reaps a harvest of Jesus in me.
 	
CHORUS:
O Jesus! You’re God’s good land
For me to labor on!
I’ll bit by bit possess You
Until the whole is won!
With Canaan is God’s purpose,
The labor He will bless;
Lord Jesus, here I gain Yourself,
Your Person to possess.

2. Laboring on Jesus! My heart has been set,
Labor’s begun, and I have no regret,
For with my labor God’s sending the rain,
And all my labor on Christ yields much gain.

3. Laboring on Jesus this practical way—
Praying His Word in the spirit each day,
Foll’wing His living anointing within,
Built up with others, the church life to win.

4. Laboring on Jesus yields reality,
Meetings of fullness for all men to see;
There God and man are indeed satisfied,
And there God’s presence cannot be denied.

5. Labor on Jesus to have Him increased!
Then seek God’s dwelling and come to the feast!
There bring and offer your surplus to God,
There eat the riches, rejoice in the Lord!

1. 基督是美地，來！經營不息：
耕種並澆灌，收穫必盈溢；
神眷顧賜福，基督長我裡；
收成獻與神，使神心滿意。
 	
同來經營神美地，就是基督自己；
點滴經歷時累積，直至盡享無遺。
美地乃是神心意，祂必賜福不已；
全心經營不遺餘力，必享豐富無比。

2. 基督是美地，我們已定意：
全心來經營，絲毫不猶疑；
栽種要殷勤，沛雨必滴瀝；
勞苦不徒然，豐收必歡喜。

3. 基督是美地，經營須積極：
禱讀主話語，天天活靈裡；
膏油時塗抹，跟隨絕不離；
過召會生活，建造何美麗！

4. 基督是美地，經營產“實際”：
聚會展基督，豐滿人稱奇；
如此獻基督，神、人都滿意；
確證神同在，引多人歸依。

5. 美地同經營，節期來聚集：
上到神居所，照神所選立；
手中滿富餘，奉獻討神喜；
吃喝主豐富，喜樂真洋溢！
