German:
Liebster Jesu, wir sind hier,
dich und dein Wort unzuhören;
lenke Sinnen und Begier
auf die süssen Himmelslehren,
dass die Herzen von der Erden
ganz zu dir gezogen werden.
English:
Blessed Jesu, at Thy word
We are gathered all to hear Thee;
Let our hearts and souls be stirred
Now to seek and love and fear Thee;
By Thy teachings sweet and holy
Drawn from earth to love Thee solely.
