Morgenlied
 (Sung text for setting by A. Walter)
 See original
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Kein Stimmlein noch schallt von allen
In früh'ster Morgenstund,
Wie still ist's noch in den Hallen
im weiten Waldesgrund.

Ich stehe hoch überm Tale
Stille vor großer Lust,
Und schau nach dem ersten Strahle,
Kühl schauernd in tiefster Brust.

 ... 

Und eh' sich alle erhoben
Des Tages Freuden und Weh,
Will ich, Herr Gott, dich loben
Hier einsam in stiller Höh. -
