Translation to Danish (As seen in the booklet): Frederiksen
The cross has not been of benefit to us
Not either the faith in Jesus’ name
The church and the cross will turn to dust

If the pious still become ill
And prayer doesn’t cure at all
To your “Father” I shall turn to no more
I do not need him
The cross has not…
