Weihnachten
 (Sung text for setting by R. Trunk)

Language: German (Deutsch)

Über die Hütte weht der Wind,
wo Joseph und Maria sind.

In den Ritzen Heu und Stroh,
und die beiden so wunderfroh.

In dem allerärmsten Haus
geht ein Glanz von dem Kinde aus,

das in dieser seligen Nacht
in der Krippe liegt und lacht.

Engel kommen und wiegen es ein.
Das ist das süße Jesulein.
