2. Abendlied  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Der Tag neigt sich zu Ende,
Es kommt die stille Nacht; 
Nun ruht, ihr müden Hände,
Das Tagwerk ist vollbracht. 

Du aber, Seele, ringe
Dich von der Erde los, 
Und werde leicht und schwinge
Dich auf in Gottes Schooß. 

Hinauf mit Glaubensflügeln,
Die Liebe fliegt voran, 
Wo über dunkeln Hügeln
Der Himmel aufgetan.

3. Weihnachtslied  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
O, neige deine Flügel
  Auf mich, du holde Nacht!
Die du das Licht der Liebe,
  Den Heiland, uns gebracht!

Die Augenlider schließe 
  Mit sanftem Kuß mir zu,
Und in die Seele gieße 
  Mir Frieden nun und Ruh! 

Laß mich das Licht nur sehen, 
  Das still in mir erglüht,
Und mich mit Kindesflehen 
  Zu dir hinüber zieht!
