by Heinrich Leuthold (1827 - 1879)

Der Tag ist um
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Der Tag ist um,
Und wiederum
Hat deine Macht
Dein Kind bewacht.
Und fort und fort
Bet ich zu dir:
O Herr, mein Hort!
Sei du mit mir.

In deiner Hut,
Wie bin ich good!
Kein Vögelein
Ist dir zu klein,
Mein Kindeswort
Dringt auch zu dir:
O Herr, mein Hort!
Sei du mit mir.

Dich fleh ich an,
Zeig mir die Bahn;
Lass fromm und rein
Mein Leben sein.
An jedem Ort
Steh ich vor dir:
O Herr, mein Hort!
Sei du mit mir.
