- Refrain:
Lift up the light of your face upon us, O Lord.
Lift up the light of your face upon us, O Lord
- When I call answer me,
O God of justice.
From anguish you release me,
have mercy and hear me!
- It is God who grants favours
to those God loves.
The Lord
hears me whenever I call.
- So many say,
'What can bring us happiness?'
So lift up the light of your face upon us.
- I will lie down in peace
and sleep comes at once,
for you alone, Lord,
make me dwell in safety.
