Chorale Text
German:
Machs mit mir, Gott, nach deiner Güt
hilf mir in meinem leiden,
was ich dich bitt, versag mir nicht,
wenn meine seel will scheiden,
so nimm sie, Herr, in deine händ,
ist alles gut, wenn gut das end.

English:
Do with me, God, according to your goodness;
help me in my suffering.
What I ask you is this: do not fail me
when my soul departs;
take it, Lord, into your hands.
Everything is good if the end is good.
