by Friedrich Heinrich Oser (1820 - 1891)

Mach voller Einfalt mich
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Mach voller Einfalt mich, 
Gering und still und rein, 
Daß ich mag ewiglich,
Herr, deine Wohnstatt sein!

Demut, himmlisch klar, 
Mein Jesu, nah herzu, 
Erfüll mich ganz und gar 
Du reinste Liebe du! 

Du, aller Weisheit Quell 
Und aller Wahrheit Grund, 
Wie wird mein Innres hell 
Durch deinen Blick zur Stund: 

Mach voller Einfalt mich, 
Gering und still und rein, 
Daß ich mag ewiglich, 
Herr, deine Wohnstatt sein!
