by Justus Jonas (1493 - 1555)

Coro. Die Feind sind all in deiner Hand
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG FRE
Die Feind sind all in deiner Hand,
Darzu all ihr Gedanken;
Ihr Anschläg sind dir, Herr, bekannt,
Hilf nur, dass wir nicht wanken.
Vernunft wider den Glauben ficht,
Aufs Künftge will sie trauen nicht,
Da du wirst selber trösten.

Den Himmel und auch die Erden
Hast du, Herr Gott, gegründet;
Dein Licht lass uns helle werden,
Das Herz uns werd entzündet
In rechter Lieb des Glaubens dein,
Bis an das End beständig sein.
Die Welt lass immer murren.
