German text
Es ist genug:
Herr, wenn es dir gefällt,
So spanne mich doch aus!
Mein Jesus kommt:
Nun gute Nacht, o Welt!
Ich fahr’ ins Himmelshaus
Ich fahre sicher hin mit Frieden
Mein grosser Jammer bleibt darnieden.
Es ist genug,
Es ist genug!
English translation
It is enough:
Lord, if it pleases Thee
I'll lay my burden down!
My Jesus comes:
I bid the world “farewell”!
I seek my heav'nly home.
I travel safely there with contentment
My earthly cares no more important.
It is enough,
It is enough.
