Vaterland, 
Ruh' in Gottes Hand.   
Wenn wir deinen Namen nennen,  
Wird das Herz so hoch entzückt; 
Wenn wir deinen Werth erkennen, 
Fühlen wir uns hoch beglückt. 
Schütze Gott 
Dich vor Noth; 
Ruh' in seiner Hand, 
Theures Vaterland!

Fried' und Ruh' 
Wende Gott dir zu.   
Nur auf milden Friedensauen 
Kann, o Volk! dein Glück erblühn;
Nur bei hohem Gottvertrauen  
Krönet Segen dein Bemühn.    
Fasse Muth, 
Gott ist gut;
Ruh' in seiner Hand, 
Theures Vaterland! 

Recht und Pflicht 
Wanken ewig nicht.  
Wo das Recht den Vorsitz führet, 
Ruht auf ihm so fest der Staat;   
Wo die Pflicht den Sinn regieret,   
Folget Segen jeder That.  
Fromm und frei,  
Gott getreu, 
Ruh' in seiner Hand, 
Theures Vaterland!
