En willes niet beniden by André Vierendeels — Lyrics
En willes niet beliden,
ter herten laeten gaen,
dat hen die bosen verbliden
end hier gheluck ontfaen:
want sij als hoy verdoven,
verdorren als eenich cruyt,
betrout den Heer hier boven,
in alle zijn goet
sult ghi hier zijn ghevoet.
Wilt u in God vermaken,
hy geeft u veel gaven soet,
daer nae u herte mach haken,
u wech hem open doet,

About En willes niet beniden
This hymn is designed for a SAB choir and sung in Dutch. It opens with a reflection on worldly pleasures, contrasting them with the fleeting nature of earthly success. The text encourages trust in God, promising divine gifts and guidance for those who seek Him. It emphasizes obedience and prayer, urging listeners not to envy those who pursue wicked paths, as their fortune is temporary. The message is one of steadfast faith, assuring believers that God will not abandon them and will lead them towards righteousness and eternal peace, ultimately highlighting the peril of wickedness and the reward of devotion.
