Der ewig reiche Gott
Woll uns bei unserm Leben
Ein immer fröhlich Herz
Und edlen Frieden geben,
Und uns in seiner Gnad
Erhalten fort und fort,
Und uns aus aller Noth
Erlösen hier und dort.

...
The eternally lavish God
Wishes to provide, for our lives,
A perpetually happy heart
And contented peace,
And in His grace
To hold us ever and ever,
And to deliver us from all distress
Now and into the future.
