Original text and translations
German text
Verleih uns Fried genädiglich,
Herr Gott, zu unsern Zeiten.
Es ist doch ja kein ander nicht,
der für uns könnte streiten,
denn du, unser Gott, alleine.
French translation
Donne-nous la paix dans ta clémence,
Ô Dieu, en notre temps.
Il n’y en a pas d’autres
qui puisse pour nous combattre,
sauf toi seul, notre Dieu.
English translation
In these our days so perilous,
Lord, peace in mercy send us;
No God but thee can fight for us,
No God but thee defend us;
Thou our only God and Saviour.
