Aria. Wo wird in diesem Jammertale

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: ENG FRE

Wo wird in diesem Jammertale
Vor meinen Geist die Zuflucht sein?
    Allein zu Jesu Vaterhänden
    Will ich mich in der Schwachheit wenden;
    Sonst weiß ich weder aus noch ein.

Air. Où, dans cette vallée de lamentations

Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)

Où, dans cette vallée de lamentations
Est le refuge de mon esprit ?
Mais vers les mains paternelles de Jésus
Je me tournerai dans ma faiblesse ;
Sinon je ne sais plus quoi faire.
