介绍林義忠最新专辑“憩”。。。 Introducing GT Lim’s latest album “Rest”…
能休息是一个福分。。。 To be able to rest is a blessing…
介绍给你们我的最新专辑“憩”。。。说最新嘛，也已出了将近一年了。。。大家可在我部落格首页聆听每首歌的一些片段，希望大家都会喜欢。。。
今年我甚少走动，专辑也因此缺乏宣传，原因是在忙教会的一些事宜和其他事工，所以把唱片事工暂时耽搁，再加上本身也想休息一下，然后再出发。。。
所以唱片名为“憩”也蛮有“预言性”的因为就这样在唱片事工上真的是休息了一阵子，但我有在“忙”别的事工， 和别人的唱片。。。稍后再分享这些。。。
至于“憩”这张专辑我自己非常喜欢，我觉得它对我自己是一个提醒。。。所谓“憩”或休息，指的是在忙忙碌碌的生活和服事当中，最重要的莫过于安息在主同在里，与主一直保持亲密的关系，我们跟神的关系绝对不能因忙碌的生活或事奉而被忽略或牺牲掉。。。
当中有两首歌给我感触特别深，就是主打歌“车站”和“安息日的主”。。。这两首是在2004年7月31日我在韩国的大地教会里写的，当时何用仁牧师正在带领很强烈的敬拜赞美，几千个会众也在敬拜高歌。。。而我却跪在地上，拿出一张纸把突来的源源不断的两首歌词写出来！想必神借着这两首歌再提醒我跟他一定要最亲密，和唯有在耶稣里才能享有真正的安息。。。
Introducing to you my latest album “Rest”… to say it is the latest, it has already been released for about a year… You can listen to parts of all the songs in the home page, hope you will like the songs…
I seldom travelled this year, therefore not much promotion for my album, reason being I have been very busy with church matters and other ministries, so my album ministry is kind of being put on hold for a while, plus I wanted to take a rest so I can start again…
So the title of the album “Rest” is indeed rather “prophetic” because after that I have really rested my album ministry for quite a while, but I have been keeping busy with other ministries and also others’ albums… will share about that some other time…
I myself really like this album “Rest”, I feel that it is a reminder to myself… The word “Rest” here implies in the midst of our busy schedule in our daily lives and ministries, the most important thing is to rest in the presence of the Lord, to always maintain an intimate relationship with the Lord, our close relationship with God must not be compromised or sacrificed due to our busy lifestyle or ministry…
There are two songs here which are very special to me, one is the title track “Station” and ” Lord of the Sabbath”… These two were written on July 31st, 2004 in a church in Korea, at that time Pastor Stephen Ha was leading a very powerful praise and worship, thousands of Christians were worshipping and singing… but I was down on my knees, taking out a piece of paper writing down the sudden non-stop inspiration of the lyrics of the two songs! I believe God was using these two songs to remind me that I must be closest with Him and it is only in Jesus that I can find real rest…
在主里得安息后，事奉绝对更有力量、更喜乐。。。
When you have rested in God, your serving will definitely be stronger and more joyful…
所以无论在何时何地，都要学习会安息在主爱里。。。
So no matter where and when, we must learn to rest in God’s love…
