Wir danken und preisen dein brünstiges Lieben |
We thank and praise your fervent love |
Und bringen ein Opfer der Lippen vor dich. |
and bring an offering from our lips before You. |
Der Sieger erwecket die freudigen Lieder, |
The Victor awakens the happy songs, |
Der Heiland erscheinet und tröstet uns wieder |
the Savior appears and comforts us again |
Und stärket die streitende Kirche durch sich. |
and through Himself strengthens the struggling Church. |
