Herr, schicke was du [willt]

Ein Liebes oder Leides;

Ich bin vergnügt, daß beides

Aus Deinen Händen quillt.

 

Wollest mit Freuden

Und wollest mit Leiden

Mich nicht überschütten!

Doch in der Mitten,

Liegt holdes Bescheiden.

 

Send what You will, my Lord,

May it be love or sorrows!

I am content that both

From Thy dear hands do pour.

 

May You with love

and may You with sorrows

Not overwhelm me!

For it's the midway

Where modesty grows.

 

  

Postlude: Herr Jesu Christ, dich zu uns wend,

Johann Gottfried Walther
