亲爱的听众朋友们，2018年就要与我们告别，我们即将迎来2019年！每逢迎接新年之时，我们总是会感叹时光匆匆、稍纵即逝，一年又弹指而过！回首2018年，变幻莫测的世界，以及从岁首到岁末发生在我们身边大大小小的事情——这一切都无不叫人为过去的一年唏嘘感叹！回首过往，作为生命的个体，我们也会反省自己的得与失，快乐与痛苦，追问生命的意义何在？

同样，新年伊始之际我们也都会对未来有着更美好的展望和憧憬，并祈祷、祝愿新的一年平安顺利。而作为基督徒，我们除了向上帝祷告，在教会里，基督徒们也会一起唱赞美诗歌来表达心声，向上帝唱出自己的祈祷和祝愿。亲爱的听众朋友，今天介绍的这首诗歌《主，我献上生命给你》就是关于感恩、祈祷和祝愿的一首歌曲。

《主，我献上生命给你》（Lord I Offer My Life To You）原是一首英文歌，作者是嘉兰．柯隆宁（Claire Cloninger），她曾四度获得美国福音歌曲最高荣誉“圣鸽奖”（Dove Award）歌曲创作奖。她创作过音乐剧《竭力追求至高无上的祂》(My Utmost for His Highest)，畅销书《一个名叫单纯的地方》(A Place Called Simplicity) 及《亲爱的阿爸》(Dear Abba)。

Hello and welcome to David’s life testimony. Last week, we shared David’s childhood in the village where no one called him by his given name. Family members and others called him Babi which is ‘pig’ in the Malay language and his mother later called him Lebbit instead of David. Then, we shared about an event that left a deep impression on him even until today - a pre-dawn visit to a temple. Today, let us continue on what David encountered in the temple and his life as a teenager.
