Weihnachtslied
Language: German (Deutsch) 
O Jesuskind, Dich bet' ich an,
Du hast uns Allen wohlgetan!
Du bist gekommen zu uns arm,
Ein hilflos' Kind im Mutterarm!
O Jesuskind, Dich bet' ich an,
Du hast uns Allen wohlgetan!

O Jesusknab', wie lieb' ich dich,
Daß du gekommen auch für mich;
Dein göttlich Auge strahlend lacht
Uns aus der dunklen Winternacht.
O Jesusknab', wie lieb' ich dich,
Daß du gekommen auch für mich;

Herr Jesus Christ, schaff' rein mein Herz,
Von Erdennot und Erdenschmerz;
Laß uns in dieser Weihenacht
Dir danken für die Himmelspracht,
Die du verheißen uns bei Dir!
Herr Jesus Christ, Dir danken wir.
