Herrens moder
Language: Danish (Dansk)
Herrens moder høie milde evigt rene Uskylds-Kilde. Før mig bort fra synd og Våde lad mig signes af din Nåde. Se jeg ængstes! Hør jeg græder. Du, kun du kan Tåren stille. Roser spirer, hvor du træder, himmeldronning høie, milde.

Gottesmutter, hohe, helle
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Danish (Dansk)
Gottesmutter, hohe, helle, Ewig reine Unschuldsquelle, Führ mich fort vom Sündenpfade, Lass mich segnen Deine Gnade! Seh, mich banget, hör ich weine, Thränen trocknest Du alleine: Wo Du wallst, blühn Rosen schnelle, Himmelskön'gin, hohe, helle!
From the Sinding score.
