著名基督徒作家，講員，畫家，歌手，殘疾人活動家、四肢癱瘓40多年，剛經歷了乳癌，現已64歲的瓊妮·厄爾克森(Joni Eareckson Tada)演唱的歌曲《孤單但不孤獨》(Alone Yet Not Alone)幾天前被美國電影藝術與科學學院宣布取消它的今年奧斯卡最佳原創歌曲提名。

令人驚訝，卻也覺得正常，這是一首基督教歌曲。瓊妮以她的生命唱這首歌，唱得優揚美麗，盪氣迴腸，感人肺腑。今年的奧斯卡缺了這首歌，將是大缺陷。

《孤單但不孤獨》是電影Alone Yet Not Alone主題曲，電影將在6月13日在各地電影院上映。歌曲視頻地址http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWVyVMbSzM4

《孤單但不孤獨》歌詞

我孤單，卻不孤獨。

神的光將引我回家。

以祂的愛和溫柔，

領我經過曠野，

無論我在何處徘徊，

我孤單，卻不孤獨。

我不會在恐懼中折腰。

知道祂是我身邊的避難所。

在祂的力量中我找到自己。

祂的信實顯出憐憫，

祂的盾牌如此強大，

祂無比的愛盡顯其中。

當我的腳步迷失，

絕望地渴求方向時，

我感到袮的觸摸，

袮同在我身旁賜我安穩。

我孤單，卻不孤獨。

孤身卻沒有被撇棄，

我倚靠在你手臂里，

從患難中被高舉。

若我跌倒或被拋棄，

我孤單，卻不孤獨。

當我的腳步迷失，

絕望地渴求方向時，

我感到袮的觸摸，

袮同在我身旁賜我安穩。

同在我身旁！

祂以愛吸引我

祂的使者從高天看顧。

不怕任何的兇惡，

因為我知道必將得救。

我不是孤身受驚恐，

我孤單，卻不孤獨。

我孤單，卻不孤獨。

英文歌詞：

Alone Yet Not Alone

I'm alone, yet not alone.
God's the light that will guide me home.
With His love and tenderness,
Leading through the wilderness,
And wherever I may roam,
I'm alone, yet not alone.

I will not be bent in fear.
He's the refuge I know is near.
In His strength I find my own.
By His faithful mercies shown.
That so mighty is His shield
All His love is now revealed.

When my steps are lost.
And desperate for a guide,
I can feel his touch,
A soothing presence by my side.

Alone, yet not alone.
Not forsaken when on my own.
I can lean upon His arm,
And be lifted up from harm.
If I stumble, or if I'm thrown,
I'm alone, yet not alone.

When my steps are lost.
And desperate for a guide,
I can feel his touch,
A soothing presence by my side.

By my side!

He has bound me with His love,
Watchful angels look from above.
Every evil can be braved,
For I know I will be saved.
Never frightened on my own,
I'm alone, yet not alone.

I'm alone, yet not alone.
