Out of love for you, driven by a decree of the soul I give you my heart, give you my body Lying on the floor in front of the holy altar Out of love for you! Decree of the soul I am quietly lying with delight admired By the priests I can feel the proud purple rulers of the world Looking at me! I feel like they deliberately entrust me with their secrets I want to shout before everyone that I am becoming a superhuman lord From now on, what my eyes will see Is what my body will feel When they forgive me all my sins When my mind is free I can come out of hiding I can rule souls and I know one thing: I will not betray you I will not abandon my faith I will not abandon the cross I will not give in to unbelief I praise you for your glory Here I am, good and sweetest jesus I ask you and I beg you To implant the most vivid feelings Of faith into my heart Hope and love and true Repentance for my sins Out of love for you, out of the decree of the soul I give you my heart, give you my body You are the support, till you drop Like a swiss guard protecting Every crime will remain a hidden secret
