願上帝也會眷顧我們的另一個家 - 中國

70年前的今天,1937年12月13日,日本侵略軍佔領南京。在華中派遣軍司令官松井石根和第六師團長谷壽夫的指揮下,對中國軍人和南京百姓進行長達6週的血腥大屠殺....讓我們的同胞用鮮血寫下了人類歷史最醜陋的一頁....走筆至此,筆者也不想再寫下去,只可牢記“以史為鑒,面向未來”。有興趣多了解這段歷史的老友記,可溜覽以下的網站:

最後和大家分享筆者最喜愛的歌曲 "Amazing Grace (奇異恩典)",讓美國著名的年青演唱家 Leann Rimes 來演譯,願上帝也會眷顧我們的另一個家 - 中國。
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.

'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear,
The hour I first believed!

Through many dangers, toils and snares,
We have already come;
'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.(Lead me home!)

The Lord has promised good to me,
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.

Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease;
I shall possess, within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.

The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, who call'd me here below,
Will be forever mine.

When we've been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we'd first begun.
