by Hans Adolf Brorson (1694 - 1764)

O Hellig Aand! mit Hierte
Language: Danish (Dansk) 
O Hellig Aand! mit Hierte
Den Stad saa haardt attraaer,
Det søde Hiem,
Jerusalem,
5Hvor al min Nød og Smerte
Sit Pas og Afskeed faaer.
O Hellig Aand &c. &c.
O Hellig Aand! mit Hierte
Den Stad saa haardt attraaer.

Men ach! de Fare-Vande.
Hvor kand jeg finde Spor,
10Blant blinde Skiær,
Mod Strøm og Vær,
Til Fryde-Borg at lande?
Jeg skal, jeg er derfor.
Men ach! de Fare-Vande.
Hvor kand jeg finde Spor.

15Befæst mig dog de Tanker:
Jeg snart i Himlen staaer.
Giør Troen kiek
Mod Bølgens Skræk,
Hold selv ved Roer og Anker,
20Du veed, hvad jeg formaaer!
15Befæst mig dog de Tanker:
Jeg snart i Himlen staaer.
