這幾天武漢肺炎疫情在大陸已經超過九千七百例確診,在全世界也數百例。台灣有藝人掀起口罩風波的大幅討論,但我認為政府的處置沒錯,維持民眾對於政府防疫的信心,不暴露在染病恐慌是最重要的。這樣的做法雖有人會解釋為自私,但是站在執政者的立場,如果不能照顧國民健康安全,恐怕將來更被質疑。在這樣感覺黑暗壟罩的時刻,想起一首歌。這位歌手經歷一次嚴重到可能致命或導致此生癱瘓的車禍,遙望不到前途之際,仍然抱著希望努力復健,最後成功復原心有所感而寫下這首帶著濃厚福音風味的勵志歌曲。我依然記得當年她復出,接受全美音樂獎致敬,她滿懷感恩地站在舞台上唱這首歌的感動。
Coming Out Of The Dark /走出黑暗
Why be afraid if I'm not alone 為何害怕?若我並未孤單
Though life is never easy the rest is unknown 生活不容易未知的還許多
Up to now for me it's been hands against stone 如同此時雙手抵抗著石頭
Spent each and every moment 耗費每一刻
Searching for what to believe 思索該信仰甚麼
(Chrous)
Coming out of the dark, I finally see the light now 走出黑暗終於見到光
It's shining on me 照耀在我身上
Coming out of the dark I know the love that saved me 走出黑暗愛會解救我
You're sharing with me 你正分享著
Starting again is part of the plan 重新開始只是部分計畫
And I'll be so much stronger holding your hand 握著你的手我會更堅強
Step by step I'll make it through I know I can 一步步走我知道我可以度過
It may not make it easier but I have felt you 也許不容易但我感覺你
Near all the way 近在咫尺
(Chrous)
I stand on the rock of your love 我仰仗你的愛若磐石
(Forever and ever) (永永遠遠)
Can't nobody stop me from watching 沒有人能阻止我看著吧
(Forever, and ever) I stand on the rock of your love (永永遠遠)養長你的愛若磐石
Love is all it takes, no matter what we face 愛就是如此無論我們面對甚麼
coming out of the dark 走出黑暗
I see the light, I feel love shinning on me (shining, shining)
看見光感覺到閃耀在我身上
Shining on me 照耀著我
Coming out of the dark I know the love that saved me 走出黑暗愛會解救我
You're sharing, you're sharing with me,
sharing with me, sharing with me 你還與我共享著
Coming out of the dark 走出黑暗
Making it into the light 走進光芒中
Your love shining on me, shining on me, shining on me 你的愛會照耀著我
Coming out of the dark 走出黑暗
I see the light, I see the light (I see the light) 看見光芒
Shining, shining, shining on me 照耀著我
(Shining, shining)
Coming out of the dark
I see the light now
Yes I see the light (shining, shining)
