Herr! schicke, was du willt,
Ein Liebes oder Leides;
Ich bin vergnügt, dass beides
Aus deinen Händen quillt.
Wollest mit Freuden
Und wollest mit Leiden
Mich nicht überschütten!
Doch in der Mitten
Liegt holdes Bescheiden.
Lord, send what you will,
A love or a sorrow,
I am content that both
should spring from your hands.
May you with joy and
may you with sorrow,
not overwhelm me.
But in the middle
lies sweet moderation.

Thanks very much for putting this on you tube, it was very helpful - particularly the fact that you filmed yourself playing so we can see the notes.
