Von guten Mächten wunderbar geborgen

Here is part of a moving poem written by Dietrich Bonhoeffer. All the more moving when you know that it was one of his last written the New Years of 1945 just before his execution at the hands of the Nazis.


Maybe I'll get my own translation up sometime, but here is the chorus rendered by F.Green:

By gracious powers so wonderfully sheltered,
and confidently waiting, come what may,
we know that God is with us night and morning,
and never fails to greet us each new day.


(German)
Von guten Mächten wunderbar geborgen
erwarten wir getrost, was kommen mag.
Gott ist mit uns am Abend und am Morgen
und ganz gewiss an jedem neuen Tag.
