Chorus. Now we all thank God

(Sung text translation for setting by J. Bach)

See original

Language: English after the German (Deutsch)

Now we all thank God
With hearts, mouths and hands,
Who has done great things
For us and for all posterity,
Who, from our mothers’ womb
And throughout our childhood
Has done countless good things for us
And continues to do so.
