Text
Ich will dir mein Herze schenken. The setting is taken from the Gospel of St.Matthew (in the Luther Bible).
Ich will dir mein Herze schenken,
Senke dich, mein Heil, hinein!
Ich will mich in dir versenken;
Ist dir gleich die Welt zu klein,
Ei, so sollst du mir allein
Mehr als Welt und Himmel sein.
English translation
From love my saviour is willing to die,
Of any sin he knows nothing
So that eternal ruin
And the punishment of judgement
May not stay upon my soul.
