하나님의 길

주의 말씀들이 내 입맛에 달콤해

⼀
主阿，我來就你， 我⼼飢渴要你！
深願在此喫你喝你，享受你的⾃ ⼰。
⼆
得⾒你的⾯⽬ ，乃是我⼼所慕！
甚願在此與你接觸， 靈裡得著飽⾜。
三
你的榮耀⾯光，我⼼何等欣賞！
真願留此不再他往，⼀直向你瞻仰。
四
在這交通裡⾯，你是我的恩典！
使我⼼歡，使我靈滿，全⼈進⼊平安。
五
還要在此等候，還要向你尋求！
讀經、禱告交替不休，直到被你浸透！

備註
本⾸詩歌由 四句所組成，每句三⼩節，惟第三句多了⼀⼩節。本編曲藉由發展第三句的拱形動機 A-Bb-D-C（歌詞：深願在此），來加強原本即存在於旋律結構內的「延伸」現象，呼應歌詞中的『在此』、『留此』、『直到』，隱喻詩⼈渴慕在神的⾯光中逗留的情景。

主阿我來就你 I Come to Thee Dear Lord

This is My Rest (Hymn 1338)



1: O doubled-soul

Where is thine aim?

Reset thine heart

That Him may thou gain


Chorus:

Unclog all chambers now

Unveil all deep deceit,

Burn and sweep

With Thy Great Light

Cure of the Heart


Refrain:

Flood window sills

Cleanse with thy blood

Wash all the dirt

Cure my heart

Until all spaces in it

only for Thee.


2: O two-sided heart,

What is thine goal?

Refocus thine head

His thoughts fill thy mind.


3: O conscience unclear

How do you feel?

Rescind the dirts

That Light may shine forth


4: O shaking feels

Why do you swell?

Filling the lids

Spring thou clear tears


5: Unyielding will

What is your choice?

Align your gear

Choose heavens above.

Enoch & God (in FTTL term 2)

牧養の委託（2017年冬期FTTT卒業詩歌)

(English translation of a Chinese hymn:
https://www.hymnal.net/en/hymn/ts/762 )

We are members of the Lord's body,
Joined as one inseparably.
For His interest here we now take heed,
Tis our service reasonably.
Though along the way,
We experience much loss and pain,
Fellowship in many sufferings,
Yet more fully we obey.
None of us can act alone
You and I are brothers too.
When one's touched by the Lord,
The other rushes onward too.
We will stand with one another,
Sharing joy and sorrows too,
In this life, may we live the Body life. 

Like how Caleb joined to Joshua,
Fighting for the House of God.
Like Elisha foll'wing Elijah,
Boldly speaking out for God.
They coordinate,
Paul and Silas had a spirit strong.
While in prison, they praised God in song,
Preached the salvation of God. 
It is better to be shining,
In the midst of this dark age,
Longing for the same vision,
Going the same direction,
Step by step to closely follow
Cooperate today,
Preach the Kingdom of God to every place.

Though we all know that the course ahead
Is not of earthly prospect,
With more burnings, dealings by His hand
Natural love to reckon dead.
Though I'm small and weak,
And frustrated I do fall and steep,
Yet the saints will bring me back to be
In God's arms so lovingly. 
And for joy I am leaping,
For I've found my precious Lord,
Furthermore to be joined with saints
is better than all else,
I am shouting and proclaiming
Let all come and enter in,
To the glory of Christ and the Church. 



Living in the Body of Christ (同活在主身體中)

PROGRAM NOTE

This piece, a collaboration between Yenhsing Chen and Dooree Kang, was written for the 3rd Synesthesia Show, "Differentiation" (Peabody X MICA). It contains two parts: a sculpture and a musical composition.

We delve into moments of organic dialogue among different cultures, where established identities blur and transformation brings profound ambiguity. This effort to connect inevitably creates a challenging "gray zone," an uncertainty that sparks true understanding—especially when our communication in a foreign language doesn't quite meet our intention.

Dooree's work reimagines a traditional canvas as a sculptural installation where painting, video, and space converge. By projecting fragments of her daily life in the U.S. onto creased canvas and mesh screens, she investigates the "gray zone" between cultures—an ambiguous, fluid space where misunderstanding, humor, and moments of dissonance coexist and evolve.

Yenhsing's composition explores the interplay between two domains: language and music. The composer first recreates spoken language through meticulous instrumental writing, orchestrating the pitch contour, formants, and consonants of the speaking voice using the ensemble. Subsequently, this rendered speech is developed and transformed into musical material, thereby questioning the precise boundary between language and music. The initial material comes from the transcription of the composer's voice saying, "I hope you enjoy."
