Meine Seele ist still zu Gott, der mir...
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Latin
Meine Seele ist still zu Gott, der mir hilft
Denn er ist mein Hort, meine Hülfe, mein Schutz

Hoffet auf ihn Allezeit
schüttet euer Herz vor ihm aus;
Gott ist unsere Zuversicht, unsere Zuversicht.

My soul waits quietly on God
Language: English after the German (Deutsch)
My soul waits quietly on God, who helps me
He is my refuge, my help, my protection
I shall not be moved
for He is great.
Trust in Him at all times

[In] God is our confidence, our confidence.1
