Meaning:
My Lord is the Savior who gave me life;
He is my Friend and my comfort forever.
1
As a stranger and pilgrim in this world,
The protection of my holy Lord is all I need.
So that my feet will not stumble along the way,
I will follow the path
Where my Lord has walked before me.
2
My Beloved has given His angels
To watch over and protect me each day.
Even if I am alone
In a valley of deepest darkness,
It is enough for me
That Jesus is there beside me.
3
Even when those closest to me are not with me,
Jesus is all the close Friend I need.
Even when my heart is troubled and restless,
I have nothing to fear or worry about,
Because Jesus is with me.
4
At night and throughout long journeys,
Jesus is all I need in this world.
He is my Friend who watches over me
Without sleeping even for a moment.
How wonderful and joyful it is
That my God is always watching over me!
