Lyrics: Psalm 13, vv. 1,2

Wie lang willst du, O liebe Herr,
an mich gedenken gar nicht mehr?
Dein Angesicht vor mir verdekken
und mich in Nächten lassen stekken,
darinnen ich lieg hart und schwer?

How long, O Lord,
wilt thou forget me?
How long wilt thou hide thy thy face from me
and leave me mired in that night,
wherein I lie hard and heavy?
