Mein Jesus will es tun, er will dein Kreuz versüßen. |
My Jesus will do it, he will sweeten your cross. |
Obgleich dein Herze liegt in viel Bekümmernissen, |
Although your heart lies in many troubles, |
Soll es doch sanft und still in seinen Armen ruhn, |
yet it will rest gently and softly in his arms, |
Wenn ihn der Glaube faßt; mein Jesus will es tun! |
when faith grasps this: my Jesus will do it! |
