Words by Cyriakus Schneegass:
In dir ist Freude, in allem Leide,
o du süßer Jesu Christ!
durch dich wir haben himmlische Gaben,
du der wahre Heiland bist.
Hilfest von Schanden, rettest von Banden;
wer dir vertrauet, hat wohl gebauet,
wird ewig bleiben. Halleluja.
Zu deiner Güte steht unser G'müte.
An dir wir kleben in Tod und Leben,
nichts kann uns scheiden. Halleluja.
Wenn wir Dich haben, kann uns nicht schaden
Teufel, Welt, Sünd' oder Tod.
Du hast's in Händen, kannst alles wenden,
wie nur heißen mag die Noth,
Drum wir Dich ehren, Dein Lob vermehren
mit hellem Schalle, freuen uns alle
zu dieser Stunde, Halleluja!
Wir jubiliren und triumphiren,
rühmen und leben Dein' Macht dort oben,
mit Herz und Munde, Halleluja!
(English version) :
In Thee is gladness
Amid all sadness,
Jesus, sunshine of my heart.
By Thee are given
The gifts of heaven,
Thou the true Redeemer art.
Our souls Thou wakest,
Our bonds Thou breakest;
Who trusts Thee surely
Has built securely;
He stands forever: Alleluia!
Our hearts are pining
To see Thy shining,
Dying or living
To Thee are cleaving;
Naught can us sever: Alleluia!
Since He is ours,
We fear no powers,
Not of earth nor sin nor death.
He sees and blesses
In worst distresses;
He can change them with a breath.
Wherefore the story
Tell of His glory
With hearts and voices;
All heav'n rejoices
In Him forever: Alleluia!
We shout for gladness,
Triumph o'er sadness,
Love Him and praise Him
And still shall raise Him
Glad hymns forever: Alleluia!
The audio sample uses wind and brass samples.
