Original text and translations
German text
- Laß dich nur nichts nicht dauren mit Trauren,
- sei stille, wie Gott es fügt,
- so sei vergnügt mein Wille!
- Was willst du heute sorgen auf morgen?
- Der Eine steht allem für,
- der gibt auch dir das Deine.
- Sei nur in allem Handel ohn Wandel,
- steh feste, was Gott beschleußt,
- das ist und heißt das Beste.
- Amen.
Paul Flemming (1609-1640)
English translation
Do not be sorrowful or regretful;
Be calm, as God has ordained,
and thus my will shall be content.
What do you want to worry about from day to day? There is One who stands above all who gives you, too, what is yours.
Only be steadfast in all you do, stand firm; what God has decided, that is and must be the best. Amen
Paul Flemming (1609-1640)
