by Gustav Friedrich Ludwig Knak (1806 - 1878)

Zieht in Frieden eure Pfade!
Language: German (Deutsch) 
[Zieht in Frieden eure]1 Pfade!
Mit euch des großen Gottes Gnade 
Und seiner heil'gen Engel Wacht!

Wenn euch Jesu Hände schirmen,
Geht's unter Sonnenschein und Stürmen,
Getrost und froh bei Tag und Nacht!  

Lebt wohl, lebt wohl, im Herrn! 
Er sei euch nimmer fern,
Spät und frühe!  
Vergeßt uns nicht 
In seinem Licht, 
Und wenn ihr sucht sein Angesicht!
