Sei gegrüßt viel tausendmale
Language: German (Deutsch)
Sei gegrüßt viel tausendmale,
O Maria Jungfrau rein,
Hilf in diesem Jammerthale!
Du erhörest Groß und Klein.
Refrain: Mit Vertraun ruf' ich zu dir,
Mutter Gottes, ach hilf mir!
Hier lieg' ich zu deinen Füßen,
Mutter Gottes, hör' mich an!
Ich will meine Sünden büßen,
Die ich jemals hab' gethan.
Refrain: Mit Vertraun ruf' ich zu dir,
Mutter Gottes, ach hilf mir!
Helfe mir in meinem Leide,
Ach verwandle meinen Schmerz
Bald in lauter Dank und Freude,
O du mildes Mutterherz!
Refrain: Mit Vertraun ruf' ich zu dir,
Mutter Gottes, ach hilf mir!
Wann sich naht mein Lebensende,
Und mein sterbend Auge bricht,
Dann, o Mutter, zu mir wende
Dein liebreiches Angesicht.
Refrain: Mit Vertraun ruf' ich zu dir,
Mutter Gottes, ach hilf mir!
Dich im Tode zu mir neige,
Rette mich aus allem Leid;
Jesum, deinen Sohn, mir zeige
In der ew'gen Himmelsfreud.
Refrain: Mit Vertraun ruf' ich zu dir,
Mutter Gottes, ach hilf mir!

The helper in duress
Language: English after the German (Deutsch)
We greet Thee many thousand times,
Oh Mary Virgin pure;
Help us in this vale of misery!
Thou grantest the pleas of great and small.
Refrain: With trust I call to Thee,
Mother of God, ah, help me!
Here I lie at Thy feet,
Mother of God, hear me!
I wish to repent of my sins,
Of all that I ever committed.
Refrain: With trust I call to Thee,
Mother of God, ah, help me!
Help me in my suffering,
Ah, turn my pain
Soon into pure thanksgiving and joy,
Oh Thou gentle Mother-heart!
Refrain: With trust I call to Thee,
Mother of God, ah, help me!
When the end of my life nears,
And my eyes close in death,
Then, oh Mother, turn toward me
Thy visage full of love.
Refrain: With trust I call to Thee,
Mother of God, ah, help me!
Incline Thyself to me in death,
Rescue me from all suffering;
Show to me Thy Son Jesus
In the eternal joys of Heaven.
Refrain: With trust I call to Thee,
Mother of God, ah, help me!
