lyrics

Many Miles you walked with me,
Many wonders I could see,
Living in this world of nothing,
drowning in the deep.

Even though I know the struggles,
know temptations from the past,
I will fight against my troubles,
a future that will last.

How can wishes be so heavy,
dreams speak into my life,
when what I'm longing for determines
how I live my life?

Wondering why my back is hurting,
where the restless sleep comes from
checking all my tempting pockets,
suddenly I know.


Auf vielen Wegen gingst du neben mir,
Viele Wunder durfte ich sehen
aber in dieser sterbenden Welt zu leben,
lässt mich in der Tiefe ertrinken.

Obwohl ich die Kämpfe kenne,
und die Versuchungen von früher
ringe ich gegen diese Kämpfe,
eine Zukunft mit Bestand.

Wie können Wünsche so wichtig werden
träume in mein Leben sprechen
wenn die Sehnsucht für mich Entscheidet
wie ich mein Leben leben soll?

Frage mich, warum mein Rücken so schmerzt,
woher dieser unruhige Schlaf kommt,
prüfe alle Versuchungen in mir,
plötzlich weiß ich es.

about

the Plessing Germany

With thePlessing project, my name says it all as I want to be a Plessing for my listeners. In previous, difficult stages of my life, I saw that I was carried by my faith in God. My songs are steeped in this experience and expression of my gratitude

"This will be our reply to violence: to make music more intensely, more beautifully, more devotedly than ever before."
Leonard Bernstein
