OriginalTranslation

Hvor underfuldt for vore øjne  - Midi

1. Hvor underfuldt for vore øjne,
for det er Herrens eget værk.
Det er kun Herren, jeg vil højne,
det er kun Herren, som er stærk.
Du er min Gud, jeg takker dig,
min store Gud, jeg priser dig.
|:Jeg takker dig, fordi du svarede mig
og blev min frelse.:|

2. Jeg blev stødt ned, var ved at falde,
og kunne intet gøre selv.
Jeg var for udpint til at kalde,
men så kom Herren mig til hjælp.

3. Han er min lovsang – Ham vil jeg dyrke
med jubelråb og strengeleg.
Nu er jeg tryg – Han er min styrke!
Hvad kan et menneske gøre mig?

4. Nu skal jeg ikke dø, men leve
og tale om, hvad Gud har gjort.
Og når mit kald på jord får ende,
da går jeg ind ad Herrens port.

Sl 118/JE

So wonderful to our eyes

How wonderful to our eyes,
for it is the work of the Lord.
Only the Lord I will magnify,
only the Lord is strong.
You are my God, I thank you,
My great God, I praise you.
I praise you, for you answered me
and became my salvation.

I was beaten down and falling,
and I could do nothing by myself.
I was too weak to call,
But then the Lord came to help me.

He is my song, I will worship him
with shouts of joy and music.
Now I am safe, He is my strength!
What can a man do to me?

I shall not die, but live
And speak about what God has done.
And when my mission on Earth ends,
I will walk through the Lord's gate.

JE
