Seelengarten
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Auf blumiger Himmelswiese 
im Frühlingssonnenschein,
da spielen die Kinderseelchen 
mit Sommervögelein,

mit Blumen und Sonnenstrahlen, 
sie jagen einander nach!
Wissen noch nichts von Qualen 
und nichts von Ungemach.

Warten hier auf Zeiten, 
wo Gott sie rufen wird
und sie auf Erden gleiten, 
von Engelshand geführt.
