| Translation of the English poem "The day Thou gavest, Lord, is ended" by John Ellerton (*1826-12-16 - †1893-06-15) into German by Raymund Weber. Diese Übertragung ins Deutsche ist abgedruckt in dem Gesangbuch der Katholischen Kirche in Deutschland "Gotteslob", in der neueren Ausgabe. Der Text mit den Muziknoten findet sich auch auf der Heimseite http://www.documentacatholicaomnia. u/01p/2006-09-10,_SS_Benedictus_XVI,_Ves er_in_der_Kathedrale_in_Muenchen,_GE.pdf. | 2. We thank Thee that Thy church, unsleeping, | |
| While earth rolls onward into light, | ||
| Through all the world her watch is keeping, | ||
| And rests not now by day or night. | ||
| 3. As o’er each continent and island | ||
| The dawn leads on another day, | ||
| The voice of prayer is never silent, | ||
| Nor dies the strain of praise away. | ||
| 4. The sun that bids us rest is waking | ||
| Our brethren ’neath the western sky, | ||
| And hour by hour fresh lips are making | ||
| Thy wondrous doings heard on high. | ||
| 5. So be it, Lord; Thy throne shall never, | ||
| Like earth’s proud empires, pass away: | ||
| Thy kingdom stands, and grows forever, | ||
| Till all Thy creatures own Thy sway. | ||
