Herr, hilf tragen
 (Sung text for setting by G. Flügel)
 Matches original text
Language: German (Deutsch) 
  Herr, hilf tragen, 
  Laß dir's klagen,
Wie so schmerzlich drückt die Last! 
  Hab' Erbarmen, 
  Sieh mich Armen,
Wie ich schmachte bang nach Rast! 

  Der du Kühle 
  In der Schwüle 
Suchtest selbst am Bronnen dort:
  Nimm den Kummer
  Mir im Schlummer 
Ach nur für ein Stündlein fort! 

  Strahlend heiter, 
  Auf der Leiter 
Gottes Engel laß mich sehn,
  Und erquicket,
  Neu sich schicket
Froh dein Kind, dir nachzugehn.
