Drag, Jesu, mig
 (Sung text for setting by C. Nielsen)
 See original
Language: Danish (Dansk) 
   Mel. O drøvelse, O hiertens &c.
 
Drag, Jesu, mig
Dog efter dig,
Saa følger jeg med længsel,
did, hvor du, o Jesu gik
Ud fra verdens trængsel.
 
Drag, Jesu, mig
Dog efter dig,
Fra verdens myre-tue,
At jeg ikke meere skal
al den jammer skue.
 
Drag, Jesu, mig
Dog efter dig,
Med Zions brude-skare,
Thi vi kunde ellers let
Vild i verden fare.
 
Drag, Jesu, mig
Dog efter dig,
Til himmlens fryde-bolig,
Verden er for dine smaa
Vildsom og uroelig.
 
Drag, Jesu, mig
Dog efter dig,
Til himlen op at fare,
Der at staa med glædesraab
I de frommes skare.
