Herr, gedenk, wie schwach ich bin

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: ENG

Herr, gedenk, wie schwach ich bin,
Wie so bald mein Fuß mag gleiten! 
Geh mir nimmer von der Seiten,
Herr, gedenk, wie schwach ich bin! 
In's Verderben sänk' ich hin! 
Hülfe mir dein Arm nicht streiten! 
Herr, gedenk, wie schwach ich bin,
Wie so bald mein Fuß mag gleiten!
