Jesus is all to me.
Jesus is all to me. Nought can befall me
I cannot bear;
Since e’en what’s best will be later recalled, he
Only is there.
Wordly things we merely loan or we borrow,
Pass to and
fro;
They change hands constantly, now or tomorrow.
Ah! Let them go!
Jesus is &c. &c.
Time’s but a grain of sand, hardly a second,
All goes so
fast.
Misery’s over though when death has beckoned –
Home, then, at
last.
Be of good cheer, my heart! let nothing earthly
Vex or annoy!
Better to trust in one’s fortune, with mirth to
Sing songs of
joy.
Time’s but a grain &c. &c.

dear david,
today i finished the 27th brorson translation (3x3x3), completing book three of the four planned.
the second book will be b.s. ingemann, with 'morning and evening songs' plus eight others. once the introduction has been written, it is ready for publication. the brorson i would love to get out this year as well, but have no idea if this is feasible.
the fourth book envisaged is a corresponding book featuring kingo translations.
