[00:00.000] 作曲 : Edward Elgar
[00:00] Sabbath Morning at Sea
[00:13]The ship went on with solemn face;
[00:24]]To meet the darkness on the deep,
[00:35]The solemn ship went onward.
[00:48]I bowed down weary in the place;
[00:59]for parting tears and present sleep
[01:08]Had weighed mine eyelids downward.
[01:21]The new sight, the new wondrous sight!
[01:28]The waters around me, turbulent,
[01:34]The skies, impassive o'er me,
[01:43]Calm in a moonless, sunless light,
[01:54]As glorified by even the intent
[02:03]Of holding the day glory!
[02:32]Love me, sweet friends, this sabbath day.
[02:38]The sea sings round me while ye roll afar
[02:46]The hymn, unaltered,
[02:54]And kneel, where once I knelt to pray,
[03:05]And bless me deeper in your soul
[03:13]Because your voice has faltered.
[03:27]And though this sabbath comes to me
[03:38]Without the stolèd minister,
[03:47]And chanting congregation,
[04:01]God's Spirit shall give comfort.
[04:13]He who brooded soft on waters drear,
[04:21]Creator on creation.
[04:38]He shall assist me to look higher,
[04:47]He shall assist me to look higher,
[04:53]Where keep the saints, with harp and song,
[05:02]An endless endless sabbath morning,
[05:08]An endless sabbath morning,
[05:20]And on that sea commixed with fire,
[05:27]On that sea commixed with fire,
[05:33]Oft drop their eyelids raised too long
[05:37]To the full Godhead's burning.
[05:46]The full Godhead's burning.
