by Friedrich Heinrich Oser (1820 - 1891)

Licht und Finsternis, lobet den Herrn
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Licht und Finsternis, lobet den Herrn,
preiset und rühmet ihn ewiglich!
Freundlich auch bleibt er, verhüllt er sich;
sinkt die Sonne, so ruft er dem Stern,
weiß noch zu helfen, wenn der verblich.
