by Conrad Ferdinand Meyer (1825 - 1898)

In Harmesnächten
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Die Rechte streckt ich schmerzlich oft
in Harmesnächten
und fühlt gedrückt sie unverhofft
von einer Rechten -

Was Gott ist, wird in Ewigkeit
kein Mensch ergründen,
doch will er treu sich allezeit
mit uns verbünden.
