God behoort de Oriënt! God behoort de Occident! Noord- en zuidelijke landen Rusten vredig in zijn handen. Hij, de enige gerechte, Wil voor iedereen het rechte. Zij van al zijn honderd namen Deze hooggeprezen! Amen. Mij doen malen wil het dwalen, Maar gij weet mij terug te halen. Bij mijn hand'len, bij mijn dichten, O gij, wil mijn wegen richten!
