Steht auf, ihr lieben Kinderlein!
Der Morgenstern mit hellem Schein
lässt sich frei sehen wie ein Held
und leuchtet in die ganze Welt.

Bist willekumm, du schöner Stern,
du bringst uns Christum, Christum, unsern Herrn,
der unser lieber Heiland ist,
darum du hoch zu loben bist.

Ihr Kinder sollt bei diesem Stern
erkennen Christum, Christum, unsern Herrn,
Marien Sohn, den treuen Hort,
der uns leuchtet mit seinem Wort.
