1.前要的是祝福，今要主自己，前要的是
医治，今惟主而已；前我贪求恩赐，今要赐恩
主；前我寻求能力，今要全能者。
2.前常用手拉主，今主手牵我，前常无所
适从，今抛锚稳妥；前要的是感觉，今凭主口
说；前是频频苦试，今完全信托。
3.前是忙于打算，今则靠祈求，前是悬心
挂虑，今主担我忧；前随我心所欲，今听主支
配；前不住的乞讨，今不断赞美。
4.前我想利用主，今求主用我，前藉自己
作工，今靠主工作；前欲得人称赞，今求主喜
欢；我所有的一切，都在主自己。
（副歌）
永远举起耶稣，赞美主不息，
一切在耶稣里，主是我一切。
1 Once it was the blessing,
Now it is the Lord;
Once it was the feeling,
Now it is His Word.
Once His gift I wanted,
Now the Giver own;
Once I sought for healing,
Now Himself alone.
2 Once ’twas painful trying,
Now ’tis perfect trust;
Once a half salvation,
Now the uttermost.
Once ’twas ceaseless holding,
Now He holds me fast;
Once ’twas constant drifting,
Now my anchor’s cast.
3 Once ’twas busy planning,
Now ’tis trustful pray’r;
Once ’twas anxious caring,
Now He has the care.
Once ’twas what I wanted,
Now what Jesus says;
Once ’twas constant asking,
Now ’tis ceaseless praise.
4 Once it was my working,
His it hence shall be;
Once I tried to use Him,
Now He uses me.
Once the pow’r I wanted,
Now the Mighty One;
Once for self I labored,
Now for Him alone.
5 Once I hoped in Jesus,
Now I know He’s mine;
Once my lamps were dying,
Now they brightly shine.
Once for death I waited,
Now His coming hail;
And my hopes are anchored,
Safe within the veil.
