Representative Text

1 Herr, wie du willst, so schick's mit mir
im Leben und im Sterben;
allein zu dir steht mein Begier,
laß mich, Herr, nicht verderben.
Erhalt mich nur in deiner Huld,
sonst wie du wilLst; gib mir Geduld,
denn dein Will ist der beste.

2 Zucht, Ehr und Treu verleih mir, Herr,
und Lieb zu deinem Worte;
behüt mich, Herr, vor falscher Lehr,
und gib mir hier und dorte,
was dienet mir zur Seligkeit;
wend ab all Ungerechtigkeit
in meinem ganzen Leben.

3 Soll ich einmal nach deinem Rat
von dieser Welt abscheiden,
verleih mir, Herr, nur deine Gnad,
daß es gescheh mit Freuden.
Mein' Leib und Seel befehl ich dir;
o Herr, ein seligs End gib mir,
durch Jesum Christus. Amen.
