|---|---|
Der Heiland kennet ja die Seinen, |
The Savior knows His own indeed, |
Wenn ihre Hoffnung hilflos liegt. |
when their hope lies helpless. |
Wenn Fleisch und Geist in ihnen streiten, |
When flesh and spirit battle each other, |
So steht er ihnen selbst zur Seiten, |
then He Himself stands at their side, |
Damit zuletzt der Glaube siegt. |
so that faith triumphs in the end. |
