by Friedrich Heinrich Oser (1820 - 1891)

Fluthen des Jammers rauschen heran
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Fluthen des Jammers rauschen heran, 
Herr, durch die Fluth auch machst du mir Bahn! 
  Ewiger König, noch hab' ich ja dich, 
  Denk' an mich und rette mich! 

Weh! zerschlagen ist Seel' und Gebein, 
Du, Herr, wägst meine Last allein! 
  Ewiger König, noch hab' ich ja dich, 
  Denk' an mich und stärke mich! 

Du kannst helfen in aller Noth, 
Du kannst reißen aus Höll' und Tod! 
  Ewiger König, noch hab' ich ja dich, 
  Denk' an mich und segne mich!
