Über's Gebirg' Maria geht
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  SPA
Über's Gebirg' Maria geht
Zu ihrer Bas' Elisabeth.
Sie grüßt die Freundin, die vom Geist
Freudig bewegt Maria preist
Und sie des Herren Mutter nennt.
Maria ward fröhlich und sang:
Mein' Seel' den Herrn erhebet,
Mein Geist sich Gottes freuet;
Er ist mein Heiland, fürchtet ihn,
Er will allzeit barmherzig sein.

Was bleiben immer wir daheim?
Lasst uns auch auf's Gebirge geh'n,
Da eins dem andern spreche zu
Des Geistes Gruß das Herz auftu',
Davon es freudig werd' und spring',
Der Mund in wahrem Glauben sing':
Mein' Seel'den Herrn erhebet,
Mein Geist…
