German.png German text

Ach, was ist Leben doch so schwer,
wenn, was du lieb hast, ist nicht mehr!
Aber sei still,
weil Gott es will,
sei still, sei still!

Ach, was ist Sterben doch so schwer,
wenn, was du lieb hast, weint umher!
Aber sei still,
weil Gott es will,
sei still, sei still!

Ach, Leben und Sterben wär' nicht so schwer,
wenn unser Herz nur stille wär'.
Darum sei still,
weil Gott es will,
darum sei still,
weil Gott es will.
