So mußt Du allen Dingen Bruder und Schwester sein, Daß sie dich ganz durchdringen, Daß du nicht scheidest Mein und Dein. Kein Stern, kein Laub soll fallen -- Du mußt mit ihm vergehn! So wirst du auch mit allen Allstündlich auferstehn.

2. Wer den Weg nach innen fand [sung text checked 1 time]
Wer den Weg nach innen fand, Wer in glühndem Sichversenken Je der Weisheit Kern geahnt, Daß sein Sinn sich Gott und Welt Nur als Bild und Gleichnis wähle: Ihm wird jedes Tun und Denken Zwiegespräch mit seiner eignen Seele, Welche Welt und Gott enthält.
