Sohn des Vaters,
aber leiden, leiden müssen deine Brüder,
eh sie droben an dem Throne,
eh mit dir sie Erben sind.
 
Nur ein sanftes Joch, leichte Lasten,
o göttlicher Mittler,
o göttlicher Vollender,
sind deinen Treuen alle Leiden dieser Welt.

Adapted from stanzas 10-11.

Notes for Schubert's setting: stanza 1, line 1, word 5 ("leichte") becomes "nur leichte" in the repetition; and in stanza 2, line 4, word 4 ("alle") becomes "die" in the repetition
