Gloire à Dieu
Language: French (Français)
Mon Dieu est ma force et ma tour,
Et moi je suis si pauvre!
Tout mon espoir en Dieu
Et toute ma confiance en toi mon Dieu,
Mon Dieu, Dieu Zebaoth.
Je suis brûlé à vif,
Transpercé par une flèche de feu
De mon Seigneur, de mon Dieu.
Il m'a percé le coeur
Et il a brûlé dans mon coeur
Mon arrogance et ma fierté;
Dieu Zebaoth!

Glory to God
Language: English after the French (Français)
My God is my strength and my tower,
and I am so poor.
All my hope is in God
and all my trust in Thee, my God,
my God, God of Hosts.
I am burned alive,
pierced by a flaming arrow
by my Lord and my God.
He has pierced my heart
and his flame in my heart
has consumed my arrogance and my pride,
the God of Hosts!
