1. Each day brings sustenance anew
From a King so generous and true

2. All-Powerful, All-Conquering, All-Mighty, All-Kind
Manifest, Hidden, Near, Far to find

3. Veiled to all eyes by mysteries
Yet in us a friend to all in need

4. God suffices us, Our Lord and Guide
Best Guide is He, though we are sin personified

5. He created all for demise, so they dwell
Between misery and bliss propelled

6. How I wonder what your state will be, O soul
Tomorrow with driver and martyr extolled

7. To the Eternal King we all will fare
Lord of lords on the day of despair

8. Death comes to all under the sun
And decay is the fate of all begun
