A little song sung in hope for a soul weak in faith

Every soul that loves God
Will finally succeed!
God can yet defeat the enemy
That brings temptation to weak hearts
In distress, — even in death
God grants His Bread of Heaven.

Therefore shall I now dare,
I shall do what pleases God,
And shall renounce with all my soul
This misguided world of sin,
Honor and pleasure, hatred and envy,
And also all the vanity.

Jesus has died for me,
I am His poor servant,
He has often sought me,
Now I have accepted Him,
And if my enemy has meant me harm
I entrust myself to my Friend.

Finally I shall be received
In the pure marriage-hall,
Where they will come together
At the supper of the Lamb,
And there wine will be a comfort
Which is here with water adulterated.
