Nada te turbe;
nada te espante;
todo se pasa;
Dios no se muda,
la paciencia
todo lo alcanza.
Quien a Dios tiene,
nada le falta.
Solo Dios basta.

Eleva tu pensamiento,
al cielo sube,
por nada te acongojes,
nada te turbe.

A Jesucristo sigue
con pecho grande,
y, venga lo que venga,
nada te espante.

¿Ves la gloria del mundo?
Es gloria vana;
nada tiene de estable,
todo se pasa.

Aspira a lo celeste,
que siempre dura;
fiel y rico en promesas,
Dios no se muda.

Ámala cual merece
bondad inmensa;
pero no hay amor fino
sin la paciencia.

Confianza y fe viva
mantenga el alma,
que quien cree y espera
todo lo alcanza.

Del infierno acosado
aunque se viere,
burlará sus furores
quien a Dios tiene.

Vénganle desamparos,
cruces, desgracias;
siendo Dios tu tesoro
nada le falta.

Id, pues, bienes del mundo;
id dichas vanas;
aunque todo lo pierda,
solo Dios basta.

Let nothing disturb thee;
let nothing frighten thee;
all things pass away;
God does not change.
Patience
obtains all things.
Whoever has God
lacks nothing.
God alone suffices.

Lift up thy thought,
rise to heaven,
let nothing distress thee,
let nothing disturb thee.

Follow Jesus Christ
with a great heart,
and, come what may,
let nothing frighten thee.

Dost thou see the glory of the world?
It is a vain glory;
nothing in it is stable,
all things pass away.

Aspire to what is heavenly,
which lasts for ever;
faithful and rich in promises,
God does not change.

Love Him as His immense goodness
deserves;
but there is no fine love
without patience.

Let confidence and a living faith
keep the soul,
for whoever believes and hopes
obtains all things.

Though he see himself
beset by hell,
he will mock its furies
who has God.

Let desertions come,
crosses, misfortunes;
with God for his treasure
he lacks nothing.

Go, then, goods of the world;
go, vain delights;
though I lose everything,
God alone suffices.
