Der Leib zwar in der Erden The body indeed in the earth Von Würmen wird verzehrt, will be eaten by worms, Doch auferweckt soll werden, but it will be awakened, Durch Christum schön verklärt, transfigured in beauty through Christ, Wird leuchten als die Sonne it will shine like the sun Und leben ohne Not and live without anguish In himml'scher Freud und Wonne. in the joy and delight of heaven. Was schadt mir denn der Tod? What harm then can death do me? |
