Verleih uns Frieden genädiglich,
Herr Gott, zu unsern Zeiten.
Es ist doch ja kein ander nicht,
der für uns könnte streiten,
denn du, unser Gott, alleine.

Donne-nous la paix dans ta clémence,
Ô Dieu, en notre temps.
Il n’y en a pas d’autres
qui puisse pour nous combattre,
sauf toi seul, notre Dieu.

In these our days so perilous,
Lord, peace in mercy send us;
No God but thee can fight for us,
No God but thee defend us;
Thou our only God and Saviour.
