Lyrics (translated):
To God alone on high be glory
and thanks for his mercy,
since now and forever more
no harm can touch us.
God is pleased with us,
now there is great peace without cease,
all feuds have now an end.
We praise, extol, worship you
for your glory; we give thanks
that you, God the Father eternally
rule without any faltering.
Your power is boundless,
what your will has intended always happens.
How good for us is our splendid Lord!
