Would background music be needed for the dance? If so, what

蛇： （狡猾）夏娃，上帝真的有说不准你们吃伊甸园中所有树上的果子 would it be?

吗？

Snake: Eve, did God really say, “You must not eat from any tree in the
garden”?

娃： 园中树上的果子我们都可以吃，只有那棵分别善恶树上的果子我们
不能吃。
Eve: ‘We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, but God did say, “You
must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden

当： 是啊，上帝说，我们不可以吃，也不可摸，免得我们死。
Adam: Yeah, God said “You must not touch it or eat it, or you will die.”

蛇：（奸笑）呵呵。。。傻瓜，你们不一定死。来吧，你看，多好看多甜
美的果子，尝尝看，就吃一口。。。
Snake: (snicker) Heheh… Silly people, you will certainly not die. Look, there
are so many sweet and juicy fruits. Come and have a bite.

descends into sin]

Commented [Lee YL6]: What is the music required for this

～音乐 ～~Music~ ( M2 continued) and for how long will it be played?
(set/visual: Israel map or building??)

叙述：上帝拣选了以色列人为祂的选民，为的是要赐福给他们，
甚至万国万民。然而，人类的心是黑暗悖逆的，他们不断背叛了爱
他们的上帝，选择了他们心目中的偶像，行不义的事，沉浸在罪恶
之中。
Narrator: God chose the Israelites as His people; He wanted to bless them,
for them to be a multitude of people. Yet, there is darkness in
the heart of Men, and the Israelites betrayed God again and
again, choosing the idols of their desires, to do evil, and they
descended into sin.

独唱 1 (1:42): 我的心哪（中） O My Heart (CHINESE)

(audio: mic for soloist)

(light for the singer L6 and spot light on the soloist)

我的心哪

我的心哪！我的心哪！
快快展开你轻浮的翅膀，
起来跳舞欢唱！起来跳舞欢唱！
不要犹豫，不必考虑，
什么道德可以毅然丢弃，
6
什么亲情可以抛开不理。
今夜让我疯狂寻欢作乐，
让我沉迷于玩乐吃喝，
任意的放荡，资财的挥霍，
美色是无法自拔的漩涡

我的心哪！我的心哪！
快快展开你轻浮的翅膀，
起来尽情欢唱！起来大声呐喊！
不要犹豫，不必考虑，
什么道德、亲情毅然丢弃，
什么亲情可以抛开不理。
今夜让我疯狂寻欢作乐，
让我沉迷于玩乐吃喝任意的放荡
资财的挥霍，
今朝有酒今朝醉。
任意的放荡，资财的挥霍，
千金撒尽还复来。 Commented [Lee YL7]: Will the choir exit and dancers enter?

(M3 music for the dance)/ note: this song and dance is one piece? Do the dancers exit after the dance before the narrator starts
speaking?
(disco light effect for the dancers L7)

叙述：上帝怜悯犯罪的百姓，一次又一次的派遣先知劝祂的百姓悔改。
Narrator: God has mercy on His people. He sent prophet after prophet to
persuade them to repent.

( Light 8 for the re-enactment below)

先知 (clip mic 1)：（苦口婆心）以色列人啊！你们当听耶和华的话，不可

偏行己路，
行在黑暗罪恶的道路上。
Prophet: (Well-meaning) Israelites! Listen to the word of Jehovah, your
Lord! Do not walk the path of your own choosing, for it is dark and full of sin.

以色列人 (clip mic 2)：耶和华是谁啊?祂给了我们什么好处？

7
 我们的城市何等繁华，我的葡萄园在肥美的山上，我的居所
是高大华丽的房子。

我们喝的是浓酒，吃的是肥肉。

行走哪条路不是我自己的脚吗？要往哪儿去不是由着我的意
愿吗？

Israelite: Who is Jehovah? What has he done for me?

Our city prospers, my vineyard is on the fertile mountains, and I
live in a gorgeous house.
We drink strong wine and feast upon the fats of animals.
Is it not my own foot that walks the path? Is it not up to me to
choose where to go?

上帝：（画外音 with bright light L9, consider to shine light on the cross?）
我的子民啊，我向你们做了什么？我在什么事上令你们
厌烦？你们可以回答我。我曾经把你们从埃及为奴之地救赎出来，
难道你们忘记了吗？当你们受欺压逼迫发出哀痛的声音的时候，我
就兴起士师拯救你们脱离仇敌的手，难道你们忘记了
吗？。。。。。我的子民啊，我呼唤你们归向我，你们却转身离我
而去。。。。( OS mic for voice over as God)

God: (V/O) My people, what have I done to you? Why do you hate me so?
You can answer me. Have you forgotten that I redeemed you from
slavery and led you out of Egypt? Have you forgotten that when you
were oppressed and cried out for help, I sent the judges to save you
from your enemies?
My people, I called on you to return to me, but you chose to turn away
instead…

先知：世人啊，耶和华已经指示我们什么是善，祂向我们所要的是什么
呢？
祂只要我们行公义，好怜悯，存谦卑的心与祂同行啊！

8
Prophet: O people! Jehovah has told us what is good, and what does he
expect of us? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly
with God!

以色列人：(clip mic 3)
耶和华是谁啊? 我们根本就不需要祂！
我们可拜的神何其多！
我们喜欢口出谎言，我们喜欢眼目骄傲，
邪恶是我们的朋友，贪婪是我们的兄弟，
我们的双手喜欢沾满欺压人的鲜血，
我们的双脚喜欢行走黑暗无光的道路！

Israelite: Who is Jehovah? We don’t need him at all! There are so many
other Gods we can worship!
We like to tell lies, we like to be proud,
Evil is our friend, greed is our brother
Our hands like the blood of the oppressed
Our feet like walking the road that is dark

先知：我们至高至尊的耶和华上帝啊！我们得罪了你，我们的过犯在你的
面前增多，罪恶做见证控告我们。唉，（呼吁）以色列人啊！我们
有祸了！我们的罪就是悖逆否定创造我们的神，我们不肯听从祂的
教导，宁愿转身离祂而去，走向灭亡的道路。

Prophet: O almighty Jehovah our Lord! We have sinned and our

transgressions increase in front of you, and evil is a witness
against us. Sigh O Israel! Woe to us! Our sin is to disobey and
deny the very God that created us! We refuse His teachings, we
chose to turn away from Him, we chose the path of destruction!

联合诗班 1 (3:20): 如羊走迷 All we like Sheep（中、英） Commented [Lee YL9]: Will both be sung on both days of
performance?
Or would Chinese be sung for Chinese service and English for
English service?
(audio: stand mics for choir)
(Light:L10 for the choir: All we like sheep)

如羊走迷
我們眾人如羊走迷，各人偏行己路，遠離真神，
我們犯罪都虧欠主你的榮耀，
主啊，我們渴慕能見你榮耀，
主你的同在永遠是我所追求，

9
哦主，懇求憐憫施恩典，領我們進你聖殿，
懇求赦免，醫治這地，求使我們能夠活在你面前，

ALL WE LIKE SHEEP

All we like sheep

Have gone astray
Each of us turning
Our own separate way
We have all sinned and
Fallen short of Your glory
But Your glory is
What we desire to see
And in Your presence is
Where we long to be

Chorus
O Lord show us
Your mercy and grace
Take us to Your holy place
Forgive our sin
And heal our land
We long to live
In Your presence
Once again

叙述：以色列人心灵的眼睛瞎了，心肠刚硬不肯回转，耶和华的怒气向祂
的百姓发作，把他们交到敌人的手中，被仇敌捆绑欺压。他们就屈
服在仇敌的手下.

Narrator: The hearts of the Israelites were blinded, and they refused to
repent. Jehovah turned his anger towards His chosen people and
handed them to their enemies, to be bound and oppressed. The
Israelites then yield to the enemies.

（Light 11:L11 一群以色列人打扮的男女老少被绳子捆绑住，身上背着沉

重的包袱，包袱上写着各样罪状，在黑暗中走着。百姓在罪恶绝望中痛苦
呼求）

(A group of Israelites are bound, forced to carry a burden which lists their
sins. They walk towards darkness. The people cry out in despair) Commented [Lee YL10]: How many people will be needed to
act as these Israelites?
Where will they enter and exit?
What prop will be used as the ‘burden’?

10
叙述：耶和华神曾多次搭救他们，他们却故意悖逆神，以致自己的罪孽把
他们陷在绝望痛苦之中。
耶和华听到他们哀痛的哭声，就怜悯他们，在他们敌人面前释放他
们。并应许赐下救主弥赛亚。

Narrator: Jehovah saved them many times, but they continued to disobey
God. And thus, their sins have sunk them into despair.
Jehovah heard their cries and had mercy on them, rescuing them
from the bonds of their enemies. He also promised a saviour, a
Messiah to save them. Commented [Lee YL11]: Will this scene be acted out?

先知：神的子民啊，回转归向我们的真神上帝吧！祂怜悯我们，要赐下
救世主，将我们从罪恶中拯救出来。就是有童女因圣灵感应
生一婴孩，她要给祂取名以马内利！就是神与我们同在。

Prophet: O children of God, repent and return to our true Lord! He has
mercy on us, and will send a saviour to deliver us from evil. The
virgin will conceive from the Holy Spirit, and he shall be names
Emmanuel! Which means God with us’.

神既与我们同在
有谁能阻挡我们呢？
神既与我们同在，
有谁能阻挡我们呢？
神与我们同在
以马内利。
活在死亡阴影
没盼望的人看哪！
荣耀的曙光照耀

堕落在黑暗深渊，
没有光明的人看哪！
真光已来到。

2. 你的回应是什么？
你听到呼召吗？
是那位把独生子赐给世人的上帝
没有任何深海
没有任何高山叫我们与神的爱隔绝

（副歌）

Immanuel

A sign shall be given a virgin will conceive

A human baby bearing undiminished deity
The glory of the nations a light for all to see
That hope for all who will embrace His warm reality

Immanuel our God is with us

And if God is with us who could stand against us
Our God is with us
Immanuel

For all those who live in the shadow of death

A glorious light has dawned

12
For all those who stumble in the darkness
Behold your light has come

Immanuel our God is with us

And if God is with us who could stand against us
Our God is with us
Immanuel

So what will be Your answer? Will You hear the call?

Of Him who did not spare His son but gave Him for us all
On earth there is no power there is no depth or height
That could ever separate us from the love of God in Christ

Immanuel our God is with us

And if God is with us who could stand against us
Our God is with us
Immanuel

Immanuel our God is with us

And if God is with us who could stand against us
Our God is with us

Let men their songs employ;
While fields and floods, rocks, hills and plains
Repeat the sounding joy,

Repeat, repeat, the sounding joy.

Then let us all with one accord

Sing praises to our heavenly Lord

And with his blood mankind has bought.

叙述：是啊！今生若比永恒长，让我们吃喝快乐吧。可是谁都知道今生不
比永恒长，永恒要去何方，我们都得好好思想。耶和华赐下的耶稣，不但
是以色列人的拯救者，也是我们现代人的希望，因此，我们都得转回归向
祂。

Narrator: Yes! If life lasts longer than eternity, let us eat, drink and be
happy. But everyone knows that today will not outlast eternity,
and we have to keep that in mind. God gave us Jesus, not just to
be a saviour for the Israelites, but for all of us here today, which
is why we must turn back towards him.

HOPE IS BORN

God, in humility, enters humanity,

Into a world that is broken and torn.
Shepherds are stirring, angels are singing,
Love has come down and Hope is born.

Hope is born this night,

This silent, holy night.
The hopes and fears of all the years we meet in Him tonight.
Hope is born this, born this night,
This silent, holy night.

Heard in a baby’s cry,

Heard in a mother’s sigh,
Hope will resound in all nations tonight.

18
Hope in our sorrow,
Hope for tomorrow.
Love has come down
And Hope is born.

Hope is born this night,

This silent, holy night.
The hopes and fears of all the years we meet in Him tonight.
Hope is born this, born this night,
This silent, holy night.

倘若我今天跌倒，懇求你扶起引導；
切莫任我偏行，容我剛硬，這是我真誠祈禱。
倘若我明天驕傲，以致我迷失方向；
求你憐憫管教，切莫放棄，使我轉回你懷抱。
求你不要收回你的慈愛，好讓我在?愛中得建造；
求你不叫你的信實廢棄，因你是我的唯一依靠。
我必回應你呼召，因我知你愛多少，
我願一生一世，追隨快跑。

Narrator: What hour is it? The sky is dark, daylight approaches, and the
Day of the Lord is near. It is time to awake and repent. Look at
the world today: science is progressing, we live in an advanced
age of information, and our society is prosperous. Yet our hearts
are corrupt and our morals degraded. People doubt the
existence of the true God and deny Him, disobey Him. We are
self-centered, living to satisfy ourselves, living in sin…

上写着各样罪状，在黑暗中茫然走着/Light on the re-enactment）
(A mixed group of varied age & gender appear bound by ropes, carrying the
burdens that list out their sins, walking towards darkness) Commented [Lee YL19]: How many people, who are they and
would the ‘burdens’ be repeated from previous scene?

叙述：警醒吧! 朋友！主来的日子近了，你预备好了吗？
虽然在末后的日子，必定有好讥笑的人出来说:
“祂要降临的应许在哪里？今天的世界不是好好的存留着吗？“

事实上，圣经上说，主决不是耽延他的再来，祂乃是以祂的慈爱和
怜悯宽容我们，祂愿人人有机会悔改，不愿一人灭亡。

日子近了，祂必快来！主来到日子像贼一样来到，就在我们没有想
到的时候。朋友，你必看见末日的征兆！

Narrator: Awake, my friends! The Day of the Lord is approaching – are you
ready for it? You will hear mockery, saying, “Where is your
God?”, “Didn’t he promise to come?” The world is still be in one
piece!”

Remember, the Bible tells us that our Lord is not delaying His
coming. He is full of mercy and compassion; He only wants to
give everyone a chance to repent and not perish.

Behold! The Day of the Lord is near, and he shall come! The day
of the Lord will come like a thief, when we least expect it. Dear
friends, you shall see the signs of the End of Days!
