Oi, Herra luoksein jää [English translation]

oh Lord stay with me

it's already dawn

and all gone is

light of the sun

who would comfort me when all I feel is grief

who would get safety to his soul in fear

my days are running, all towards their end

is joy all temporal like shadow of the dark

there is nothing permanent in this place

only you my Lord with me you stay

you make evil ambush all to vain

you take my pain, and dry all my tears

where there is now dead, it's your winning

'cause Jesus, in all your gladness, you'll be my shield

my Lord's cross please light my way

when to the dead valley leads my trail

from that light's way, all the shadows disappear

in the living, in the dead you'll stay with me

from that light's way, all the shadows disappear

in the living, in the dead you'll stay with me
