Translation

He paid for me (by dying on the cross), my Father
He paid for me by representing me
While on earth, my Father
Father I thank you because you
will always keep me (safe).
I implore you to lead me (so that I may follow)
During times of sorrow/strife
You are always standing nearby.

Based on Psalm 23.
