Kleine Messe für Positiv - 6. Choral

English translation of "Ach Herr, lass dein lieb Engelein" by Fancis Brown:

Ah Lord, let your dear angels
at my last end carry my soul
to Abraham's bosom,
while my body in its narrow chamber of sleep
gently without pain and torment
rests until the last day!
Then awaken me from death,
so that my eyes may see you
in all joy, o God's son,
my saviour and throne of mercy!
Lord Jesus Christ,
hear me, hear me,
I want to praise you for ever!
