Mon Âme Se Repose

The last time I saw him before his accident, Ralph mentioned to me that he hopes to one day sing in a choir that sings beautiful sacred music. In the coming months I will play him plenty of Taizé music like this one. I think he will enjoy it:



Mon âme se repose en paix sur Dieu seul:
de lui vient mon salut.
Oui, sur Dieu seul mon âme se repose,
se repose en paix.


In God alone my sould can find rest and peace,
In God my peace and joy.
Only in God my soul can find its rest,
Find its rest and peace.


In Gott, nur in Gott ist mein Geist tief geborgen,
Von Ihm kommt mein Erlös.
Ja, nur in Gott sei mein Geist tief geborgen,
Tief geborgen in Ruh.
