by Friedrich Heinrich Oser (1820 - 1891)

Zu preisen deine Güte
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
  Zu preisen deine Güte, 
Mein Gott, und deine Treu, 
Wie füllt es mein Gemüthe 
Mit Wonne stets auf's neu! 
  So lang ich noch bin hier 
In Freuden wie in Sorgen, 
Am Abend und am Morgen, 
Lobsing, lobsing' ich dir!

  Herr, laß dir wohlgefallen 
Mein Lob zu jeder Stund, 
Schaust du ja noch bei Allen 
Nur auf des Herzens Grund! 
  Nein, du verschmähst mich nicht! 
Und einst im Himmel droben  
Will ich dich würdger loben 
Vor deinem Angesicht!
