possibly by Friedrich Wilhelm Krummacher (1796 - 1868) and possibly by Friedrich Adolf Krummacher (1768 - 1845)

Mag auch der Glaube wanken
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Mag auch der Glaube wanken
in Schauern schwer und viel:
Es setzet Gott ein Ziel
den Stürmen und Gedanken.

Mag auch die Liebe weinen,
verfolgt, verschmäht, verkannt:
Es gibt ein bess'res Land!
Des Herzens Wort täuscht keinen.

Mag auch die Hoffnung weichen,
wenn alle Stütze fällt:
Von einer treuer'n Welt
ist jeder Stern ein Zeichen.

All' Ding muss hier vergehen,
doch bleiben diese drei;
im Himmel froh und frei
wird Liebe nur bestehen.
