English text
- Rejoice in the Lord alway,
- and again I say rejoice.
- Let your restraint be known unto all men.
- The Lord is e'en at hand.
- Be careful for nothing;
- but in all prayer and supplication
- let your petition be manifest unto God,
- with giving of thanks.
- And the peace of God,
- which passeth all understanding,
- keep your hearts and minds,
- through Christ Jesus. Amen.
- Philippians 4 vv. 4-7
