Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Latin 
Nun lob, mein Seel, den Herren,
was in mir ist, den Namen sein.
Sein Wohltat tut er mehren,
vergiss es nicht, o Herze mein.
Hat dir dein Sünd vergeben
und heilt dein Schwachheit gross,
errett' dein armes Leben,
nimmt dich in seinen Schoss,
mit reichem Trost beschüttet,
verjüngt, dem Adler gleich;
der Kön'g schafft Recht, behütet,
die leiden in seinem Reich.
