Bach: Cantata No. 147, 'Heart and Mouth and Deed and Life' BWV 147, Part II, Chorale: Jesus Remains My Joy (choir)
Jesus bleibet meine Freude,
Jesus remains my joy, my dear,
Meines Herzens Trost und Saft,
My heart's comfort and sweet sap,
Jesus wehret allem Leide,
Jesus wards off all suffering and strife,
Er ist meines Lebens Kraft,
He is my life's strength, my guiding light.
Meiner Augen Lust und Sonne,
Of my eyes the delight and sun, you see,
Meiner Seele Schatz und Wonne;
Of my soul the treasure and true glee;
Darum laß' ich Jesum nicht
Therefore I'll not let Jesus depart,
Aus dem Herzen und Gesicht.
From my heart and from my sight, my sweetheart.
