O Lord
O Lord,

If tomorrow on Judgment Day

You send me to Hell,

I will tell such a secret

That Hell will race from me

Until it is a thousand years away.

O Lord, Whatever share of this world

You could give to me,

Give it to Your enemies;

Whatever share of the next world

You want to give to me,

Give it to Your friends.

You are enough for me.

O Lord,

If I worship You From fear of Hell,
burn me in Hell.

O Lord,

If I worship You From hope of Paradise,
bar me from its gates.

But if I worship You for Yourself alone

Then grace me forever the splendor of Your Face.
