有人說，《普天頌讚》裡的詩歌歌詞都很古老難明，但有一首小時候常唱的聖詩《主是愛歌》是例外，簡單得不得了，但若用粵語唱，很不協音，試改如下：

《主是愛歌》

粵譯：海牛

齊齊頌讚！主的心肝寶貝，讚美主！大慈愛！
齊齊謝恩！主的心肝寶貝，謝謝主！主是愛！

人人下拜！主的心肝寶貝，敬拜主！大慈愛！
人人熱愛！主的心肝寶貝，敬愛主！主是愛！

Praise Him, praise Him, all ye little children,
God is love, God is love;
Praise Him, praise Him, all ye little children,
God is love, God is love.

Love Him, love Him, all ye little children,
God is love, God is love;
Love Him, love Him, all ye little children,
God is love, God is love.

Thank Him, thank Him, all ye little children,
God is love, God is love;
Thank Him, thank Him, all ye little children,
God is love, God is love.

原詞有三節，普天頌讚把之併作兩節，在重譯時，也跟普頌的作法。
