Himmel über Deutschland [English translation]

I know you are with me

Even as I'm in the deepest lows

Father, forgive me

If shame is what I cause

The world's cup had me drunken

From thence I cried to thee

In pain so deeply sunken

Was where you shewed to me

You will cast the sky above the Germans

Just as my blessings reemergent

That you have kept behind your curtain

The sky above the Germans

Lay flames across the golden wire

Soon the whole world will be afire

I will put my heart into your hands

Cast the sky above the Germans

No, I could not believe it

Too small was yet my mind

Raised my eyes to receive it

But my spirit not refined

But there you made me humble

Gave of your wisdom just a piece

That, for this house of cards to crumble

Will prove a bliss to me

You turn soldiers into servants

Lead servants to the light

And Lord, your fighters are the fervent

Righteous heroes for the fight

To bring this world its downfall

Of Babylon, the whore

The eagle heeding your call

Will flap its wings and soar
