“使旷野象伊甸,使沙漠象耶和华的园囿;在其中必有欢喜、快乐、感谢,和歌唱的声音”(赛51:3)。[1]{FH 70.1}
从心出发-第58章
He will make her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the Lord; joy and gladness will be found in it, thanksgiving and the voice of melody.Isaiah 51:3.{FH 70.1}[1]

颂赞的旋律洋溢着天国的气氛;当天与地相接触之时,便有了音乐与诗歌,就是“感谢和歌唱的声音”(赛51:3)。[2]{FH 70.2}
从心出发-第58章
The melody of praise is the atmosphere of heaven; and when heaven comes in touch with the earth, there is music and song—“thanksgiving and the voice of melody.”{FH 70.2}[2]
从心出发-第58章
当初新造的地球,美丽而毫无瑕疵,在上帝的笑容之下,“晨星一同歌唱,上帝的众子也都欢呼”(伯38:7)。人们的心也这样用赞美的歌声与上天配合,回应上帝的善良。人类历史的许多事件,都是以圣歌的形式流传下来的。[3]{FH 70.3}
从心出发-第58章
Above the new-created earth, as it lay, fair and unblemished under the smile of God, “the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy.” So human hearts, in sympathy with heaven, have responded to God’s goodness in notes of praise. Many of the events of human history have been linked with sacred song.{FH 70.3}[3]
从心出发-第58章
圣经中诗歌的历史,充分说明音乐与诗歌的用途和益处。音乐往往被滥用来为罪恶服务,成为最有诱惑力的工具。但音乐如果使用得当,就成了上帝最宝贵的恩赐,能提高人的意识思念高尚尊贵的事,并陶冶和净化人的情操。当以色列民在旷野漂流时,圣诗的音乐曾鼓舞他们的旅程。照样,上帝要祂今日的儿女振奋自己的旅程生活,没有什么方法比反复吟咏诗歌更有效地把上帝的话记在心中了。这样的诗歌具有奇妙的能力,它能够制服粗暴而未经教化的性情,振奋精神,引起共鸣,促进行动的和谐,驱散那使人灰心丧志的乌云和不祥之兆。[4]{FH 70.4}
从心出发-第58章
The history of the songs of the Bible is full of suggestion as to the uses and benefits of music and song. Music is often perverted to serve purposes of evil, and it thus becomes one of the most alluring agencies of temptation. But rightly employed, it is a precious gift of God, designed to uplift the thoughts to high and noble themes, to inspire and elevate the soul. As the children of Israel, journeying through the wilderness, cheered their way by the music of sacred song, so God bids His children today gladden their pilgrim life. There are few means more effective for fixing His Word in the memory than repeating them in song. And such song has wonderful power. It has power to subdue rude and uncultivated natures, power to quicken thought and to awaken sympathy, to promote harmony of action, and to banish the gloom and foreboding that destroy courage and weaken effort.{FH 70.4}[4]
从心出发-第58章
音乐是用属灵真理感动人心的最有效的方法之一。往往当人处在心灵的重负之下,行将绝望之时,想起了一些上帝的话——长久遗忘的儿时诗歌——试探就失去了其权势,并能将勇气和快乐分给别人!……[5]{FH 70.5}
从心出发-第58章
It is one of the most effective means of impressing the heart with spiritual truth. How often to the soul hard-pressed and ready to despair, memory recalls some word of God’s—the long-forgotten burden of a childhood song—and temptations lose their power, and courage and gladness are imparted to other souls! ...{FH 70.5}[5]
从心出发-第58章
家庭中要有纯洁美妙的歌声,少一些非难,多一些愉快、盼望和喜乐。在学校中应当有诗歌的声音,这样,学生就会更靠近上帝,接近教师,并互相接近。[6]{FH 70.6}
从心出发-第58章
Let there be singing in the home of songs that are sweet and pure, and there will be fewer words of censure, and more of cheerfulness and hope and joy. Let there be singing in the schools, and the pupils will be drawn closer to God, to their teachers, and to one another.{FH 70.6}[6]

作为宗教礼节的一部分,诗歌和祷告是一样重要的。——《青年导报》,1904年3月29日。[7]{FH 70.7}
从心出发-第58章
As a part of religious service, singing is as much an act of worship as is prayer.—Youth’s Instructor, March 29, 1904.{FH 70.7}[7]
