主歌

经过烈火的锤炼
祢必炼我如同精金
葡萄枝经过修剪
必会硕果满园

受苦是与我有益
为要学习祢的律例
(所)遭遇的是出于祢
我就默然不语

副歌

祢必兴旺 我必衰微
接受炼净为能更像祢
更多的祢 更少自己
成为祢尊贵的器皿

祢必兴旺 我必衰微
有这宝贝藏在瓦器里
更多的祢 更少自己
为要荣耀祢至高圣名

Verse

After gold is placed in fire,
Impure dross is found and removed.
After growers prune a vine,
The more lovely the fruit.

I see trials for my good
As I learn Your will and decrees,
(And) I won't murmur or complain
For You gave them to me.

Chorus

You must increase, I must decrease!
Make me more like You, refined in fire.
Much more of You, much less of me!
Use this vessel for Your honor.

You must increase, I must decrease!
Treasure fills this humble jar of clay.
Much more of You, much less of me!
Let me magnify Your holy name.
