by Christian Wilhelm Spieker (1780 - 1858)

O du, des ew'gen Vaters Sohn
Language: German (Deutsch) 
O du, des ew'gen Vaters Sohn,
du Tilger meiner Sünden,
du großer, guter Gottessohn,
lass mich Vergebung finden!
Erlöser, der allein es kann,
nimm, Göttlicher, dich Aller an
um deiner Liebe willen!

Versöhner, ich gelob' es dir
und will es ewig halten:
So wahr du lebest, soll in mir
nie deine Lieb' erkalten!
Dein Leiden und dein Tod soll mich,
so lang' ich leben werd', an dich
und was du tat'st erinnern.
