Nostalgia

Language: German (Deutsch)

Durch Adams Fall ist ganz verderbt
Menschlich Natur und Wesen,
Dasselb Gift ist auf uns errebt,
Daß wir nicht mocht'n genesen
Ohn' Gottes Trost, der uns erlöst
Hat von dem großen Schaden,
Darein die Schlang Eva bezwang,
Gotts Zorn auf sich zu laden.

 ... 

Ich bitt o Herr, aus Herzensgrund,
Du wollst nicht von mir nehmen
Dein heilges Wort aus meinem Mund,
So wird mich nicht beschämen
Mein Sünd und Schuld, denn in dein Huld,
Setz ich all mein Vertrauen;
Wer sich nur fest darauf verläßt,
Der wird den Tod nicht schauen.
