Lasset dem Höchsten ein Danklied erschallen |
Let a song of thanks sound out to the Most High |
Vor sein Erbarmen und ewige Treu. |
For his mercy and eternal faithfulness. |
Jesus erscheinet, uns Friede zu geben, |
Jesus appears, to grant us peace; |
Jesus berufet uns, mit ihm zu leben, |
Jesus calls us to live with him; |
Täglich wird seine Barmherzigkeit neu. |
His mercy becomes new every day. |
