Thou art our Head, then, Lord, of Thee
True living members we will be,
And, in the strength Thy Grace shall give,
Will live as Thou wouldst have us live.
As each short year goes quickly round,
Our Alleluias shall resound;
And, when we reckon years no more,
May we in heaven Thy Name adore.
[Weihnachtslied. II.]
Also hat Gott die Welt geliebt,
Dass Er seinen eingebornen Sohn gab.
