|---|---|
Von der Welt verlang ich nichts, |
I desire nothing from the world, |
Wenn ich nur den Himmel erbe. |
if only I can inherit heaven. |
Alles, alles geb ich hin, |
I give up everything, everything, |
Weil ich genung versichert bin, |
since I am confident enough, |
Daß ich ewig nicht verderbe. |
that I will not be eternally lost. |
