[00:00.000] 作曲 : Traditional
[00:00.596]As Jacob with travel was weary one day,
[00:05.902]at night on a stone for a pillow he lay;
[00:11.490]he saw in a vision a ladder so high,
[00:17.856]that its foot was on earth and its top in the sky
[00:24.780]Alleluia to Jesus, who died on the tree
[00:30.370]and has raised up a ladder of mercy for me,
[00:36.227]and has raised up a ladder of mercy for me.
[00:44.229]The ladder is long, it is strong and well-made,
[00:50.095]has stood hundreds of years and is not yet decayed;
[00:55.938]many millions have climbed it and reached Zion's hill,
[01:02.314]many millions by faith now are climbing it still
[01:09.737]Alleluia to Jesus, who died on the tree
[01:15.357]and has raised up a ladder of mercy for me,
[01:21.464]and has raised up a ladder of mercy for me.
[01:29.438]Come, let us ascend! All may climb it who will,
[01:35.013]for the angels of Jacob are guarding it still;
[01:40.863]and remember, each step that by faith we pass o'er,
[01:47.501]many prophets and martyrs have trod it before
[01:54.419]Alleluia to Jesus, who died on the tree
[02:00.265]and has raised up a ladder of mercy for me,
[02:06.115]and has raised up a ladder of mercy for me.

作曲 : Traditional
As Jacob with travel was weary one day,
at night on a stone for a pillow he lay;
he saw in a vision a ladder so high,
that its foot was on earth and its top in the sky
Alleluia to Jesus, who died on the tree
and has raised up a ladder of mercy for me,
and has raised up a ladder of mercy for me.
The ladder is long, it is strong and well-made,
has stood hundreds of years and is not yet decayed;
many millions have climbed it and reached Zion's hill,
many millions by faith now are climbing it still
Alleluia to Jesus, who died on the tree
and has raised up a ladder of mercy for me,
and has raised up a ladder of mercy for me.
Come, let us ascend! All may climb it who will,
for the angels of Jacob are guarding it still;
and remember, each step that by faith we pass o'er,
many prophets and martyrs have trod it before
Alleluia to Jesus, who died on the tree
and has raised up a ladder of mercy for me,
and has raised up a ladder of mercy for me.
