- Chorale Text
German:
Ich hab mein Sach Gott heimgestellt,
Er mach's mit mir, wie's ihm gefällt;
Soll ich allhier noch länger lebn,
Nicht widerstrebn,
Sei'm Willn tu ich mich ganz ergebn.
--Johann Leon (d. 1597)
English:
My cause is God's, and I am still,
Let Him do with me as He will;
Whether for me the race is run,
Or scarce begun,
I ask no more--His will be done!
--tr. Catherine Winkworth
