In dich hab' ich gehoffet, Herr,
Hilf, dass ich nicht zuschanden werd'
Noch ewiglich zu Spotte!
Das bitt' ich dich, erhalte mich
In deiner Treu', mein Gotte!

English.png English translation

I have put my trust in you, O Lord,
Grant that I will not be ashamed
Nor ever put to scorn!
This I beg of you, keep me
In your faithfulness, my God!

Translation by James Gibb
