Wie heimlicher Weise
Language: German (Deutsch)
Wie heimlicher Weise Ein Engelein leise Mit rosigen Füßen Die Erde betritt, So nahte der Morgen. Jauchzt ihm, ihr Frommen, Ein heilig Willkommen, Ein heilig Willkommen! Herz, jauchze du mit! In Ihm sei's begonnen, Der Monde und Sonnen An blauen Gezelten Des Himmels bewegt. Du, Vater, du rate! Lenke du und wende! Herr, dir in die Hände Sei Anfang und Ende, Sei alles gelegt!
W. Fortner sets stanza 1
M. Meier sets stanza 2

All'anno nuovo
Language: Italian (Italiano) after the German (Deutsch)
Come un angelo che piano In modo discreto Con piedi rosati La terra ha toccato È giunto il mattino. Con gioia porgetegli, voi anime buone, un santo saluto, Sia lieto anche il cuore! L'inizio sia in Quello Che in alto, nel cielo, muove astri e pianeti nel cielo sospesi. A noi guida e consiglio Da Te, Padre, sia dato. Nelle tue mani sante Sia inizio e sia fine Sia tutto affidato.
