00:03.480 --> 00:04.880
A

00:51.080 --> 01:09.840
song for you, Lord God of hosts,
To sing what God has done, To his glory

01:09.840 --> 01:23.890
and honor, To Brussels in hand,
Fulfilled by two young boys,

01:31.620 --> 01:47.640
Who gave their gifts, So richly adorned,
The priest with right, John the Baptist,

01:47.960 --> 02:02.240
So richly adorned, His brother Heinrich,
Naked in spirit, A righteous priest and

02:02.240 --> 02:03.880
scholar.

02:09.350 --> 02:15.850
They have become the crown of

02:19.620 --> 02:33.980
God's child, For his word they have died,
They have become his martyrs, The old

02:33.980 --> 02:45.720
enemy let them catch, They have been
frightened with grief, The word of God let

02:45.720 --> 02:50.580
them deny, They have been filled with
misery.

02:59.730 --> 03:16.090
With great joy lost, He gathers to this
game, The spirit to the gates,

03:16.650 --> 03:21.690
They could not gain anything.

04:11.800 --> 04:19.260
Two great fires they lit, The boys.

04:24.060 --> 04:34.180
It took great wonder every time,
That such pain they suffered.

04:34.900 --> 04:45.380
With joy they gave themselves free,
With God's praise and blessing,

04:48.900 --> 05:00.140
Only a small part, Of this new thing,
That they never noticed there.

05:02.540 --> 05:22.500
They let them pray, They have little joy,
We should thank God for it, His word has

05:22.500 --> 05:23.940
come again,

05:33.360 --> 05:41.120
And he is gone, The tender flowers,

05:45.080 --> 05:55.320
What has begun, He will probably change
it.
