to have made a vocation out of Pastimes, but Liz has managed to do so.

詞:以賽亞書九章6節
曲:George Frideric Handel韓德爾
巴洛克時期偉大的作曲家韓德爾(George Frederic Handel, 1685-1759),出生於德國,1712年赴英國發展,以歌劇創作佔有一席之地,然而1730年代歌劇熱潮漸衰,韓德爾遭逢劇院破產,加上身體中風、精神喪亂的危機,在他人生谷底,收到好友詹寧斯(Charles Jennens)寄來神劇《彌賽亞》文本,深受感動,遂在1741年完成了這部長達兩個半小時的巨作,首演大獲成功,也挽救了他的事業。
「彌賽亞」的意思是「救世主」,歌詞依聖經經文寫成,全劇以簡樸流暢的旋律、雄偉的氣勢、華麗的技巧、明亮的和聲交織而成,將人聲與器樂發展到極致,〈因有一嬰孩為我們而生〉是其中最具聖誕節慶氣氛的一首合唱曲,歌詞取自以賽亞書九章6節,四個聲部如爭豔般展現花腔技巧,四個重複段落層層堆疊,表現世人迎接救主降生的喜樂。
For unto us a child is born,
unto us a son is given,
and the government shall be upon his shoulder;
and his name shall be called
Wonderful, Counsellor, the Mighty God,
the everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace.
因有一嬰孩為我們而生
有一子賜給我們
政權必擔在他的肩頭上
他名稱為
奇妙、策士、全能的上帝
永在的父、和平的君 less
