English (Original Language)
1. Lean on my ample arm,O thou depressed!And I will bid the stormCease in thy breast.Whate’er thy lot may beOn life’s complaining sea,If thou wilt come to me,Thou shalt have rest.If thou wilt come to me,Thou shalt have rest.
2. Lift up thy tearful eyes,Sad heart, to me;I am the sacrificeOffered for thee.In me thy pain shall cease,In me is thy release,In me thou shalt have peaceEternally.In me thou shalt have peaceEternally.
