(English translation)

God's Son
paid for us.        
Now to Heaven He went
After paying for us.
The He spoke
when He rose.
I'll come a second time
He said when He spoke
All the world will end
when He returns
We will all see Him
here the world over.
The righteous who live
He will come after
In heaven now always
in peace they will live.
