Ostern

Language: German

Geh auf, du Ostersonne, und offenbare dich,
Gib einen hellen Blick aus deinem Liebesherzen!
Ich bin noch blind an dir; komm, komm, erleuchte mich,
Verkläre dich in mir, zünd an des Glaubens Kerzen!
Und lass, o Lieb, in dir von allen meinen Sünden
Mich Rettung, Heil und Schutz und Seelenweide finden.

Easter

Language: English

Shine forth, oh Easter sun, reveal Thyself to me
And cast on me a look from Thy great heart of love!
O I am still so blind, come Thou and make me see.
O change me to Thy mind, and make my faith grow strong!
From all my sins, dear love, O let me find in Thee
Protection, peace and hope and sweet security.
