Nu flyer ieg til din Naade,
Now I escape to your mercy
Ieg giffuer mig i din Haand,
I give you my hand
Du maatte vel offuer mig raade,
You could probably offer me advice
Alt baade til Land oc Vand,
At land and sea as well
Den Stund ieg er i Liffue,
For the time I am alive
Ieg trøster mig ved din Pact,
I comfort myself at your pact
Hoss dit Ord vil ieg bliffue,
At your word I will stay
Til dig stander all min Act.
With you all my esteem will stand
Saalænge som ieg skal være,
As long as I have to be
Paa denne Verdsens Ø,
On the island of this world
Aff dig vil ieg begiære,
From you I will desire
Mine Synder at maatte bortdø,
For my sins to die
Det skeer alt for din Pijne,
It's all for your agony
Oc ved din hellig Aand,
And by your holy spirit
Naar hand met Naaderne sine,
When he with his graces
Fornyer mit Hierte oc Aand.
Revive my hart and my spirit
O Iesu Morgenstierne,
Oh Jesus morning star
Som Balsom sødeste Luct,
As balm the sweetest smell
Ieg vil dig tiene saa gierne,
I so bad want to serve you
O du velsignede Fruct,
Oh you blessed fruit
Min Siel giør du saa rene,
My soul you make so clean
Naar ieg for Dommen staar,
When I stand before judgement
Som Guld oc ædle Stene,
As gold and gemstones
Legemit som Solen klar.
The body clear as the sun
O Iesu Liffsens Herre.
Oh Jesus, the lord of life
