Weihgesang
 (Sung text for setting by F. Abt)
 See base text
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Brüder, weihet Herz und Hand
freudig gern dem Vaterland!
Tausend Herzen, tausend Flammen
lodern liebevoll zusammen,
glüh'n, ein einzig Opferbrand,
dir, o teures Vaterland!

Ewig lod're heil'ge Glut
in des deutschen Volkes Blut!
Mögen auch in Todesschmerzen
brechen viele glüh'nde Herzen:
Wo ein heilig' Licht erglüht,
stets ein neues Herz erblüht.

 ...
