English text
I'll trust God's word, and so despise
the force that man can raise;
To thee, O God, my vows are due;
to thee I'll render praise.
Thou hast retriev’d my soul from death
and thou will still secure
The life thou hast so oft preserv’d
and make my footsteps sure;
That thus protected, by thy pow’r,
I may this light enjoy:
And in the service of my God
my lengthen’d days employ.
