Herr, dein Mittleid, dein Erbarmen | Lord, your compassion, your mercy |
Tröstet uns und macht uns frei. | comforts us and makes us free. |
Deine holde Gunst und Liebe, | Your gracious favor and love, |
Deine wundersamen Triebe | Your miraculous doings |
Machen deine Vatertreu | make Your fatherly devotion |
Wieder neu. | renewed again. |
