Und unser lieben Frauen,
der traumet ihr ein Traum
wie unter ihrem Herzen
gewachsen wär ein Baum.

Und wie der Baum ein Schatten gäb
wohl über alle Land:
Herr Jesus Christ der Heiland,
also ist er genannt.

Herr Jesus Christ der Heiland
ist unser Heil und Trost,
mit seiner bittern Marter
hat er uns all erlöst.

by Catherine Winkworth
Our Lady lay a-sleeping
And dreamed a dream, as e'er 'tis said:
That there beneath her heart lay
A tree that grew with branches outspread.

And lo, the tree its shadow gave
To shelter ev'ry, ev'ry land:
Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour,
That tree is he, and aye shall stand.

Lord Jesus Christ, our saving health,
Hears us when we call:
By his most bitter Passion
He hath redeemed us all.
