Our Lord Jesus Christ!

Show us, O Lord, the number of our days

Let us know how fleeting is (this) our life

For the span of our years, is nothing before you

Each man's life is but a breath

With the Lord a day is like a thousand years

And a thousand years are like a (single) day

But Jesus Christ is (remains) the same

Yesterday, today, and forever!

(Refrain)

What is man that you are mindful of him?

For what is our life but a mist

That appears for a while and then vanishes?

We are dust and to dust we shall return

Yet how great is the love the Lord has lavished on us,

That we should be called children of God!

For He has rescued us from the dominion of darkness

And brought us into the Kingdom of His Son!
