Our translations:  CAT ENG FRE
Ein Obdach gegen Sturm und Regen
  Der Winterzeit
Sucht' ich und fand den Himmelssegen
  Der Ewigkeit.
O Wort, wie du bewährt dich hast,
Wer wenig sucht, der findet viel.
Ich suchte eine Wanderrast
Und fand mein Reiseziel.

Ein gastlich Tor nur wünscht' ich offen,
  Mich zu empfah'n,
Ein liebend Herz war wider Hoffen
  Mir aufgethan.
O Wort, wie du bewährt dich hast,
Wer wenig sucht, der findet viel,
Ich wollte sein ihr Wintergast
Und ward ihr Herzgespiel.
