Lyrics for mov. X:
GERMAN (original) "Jesus bleibet meine Freude, Meines Herzens Trost und Saft, Jesus wehret allem Leide, Er ist meines Lebens Kraft, Meiner Augen Lust und Sonne, Meiner Seele Schatz und Wonne; Darum lass ich Jesum nicht Aus dem Herzen und Gesicht."
ENGLISH (original) "Jesus will always be my joy, My heart’s comfort and essence, Jesus is there through all suffering, He is my life’s strength, The desire and sunshine of my eyes, My soul’s treasure and bliss; Therefore I will never let Jesus go, Neither from my heart nor from my face. "
