My #LentInMusic, 2018 (Day 19)

“Verleih' uns Frieden,” by Felix Mendelssohn. (Also, PLAYLIST).

Verleih' uns Frieden gnädiglich,
Herr Gott zu unsern Zeiten!
Es ist doch ja kein andrer nicht,
Der für uns könnte streiten,
Denn du, unser Gott, alleine.

O Lord God grant us
Thy peace and thy mercy
For these times in which we live!
For there is none other save Thou, Lord,
Who hath the power to fight for us.
