by (Heinrich) Ludwig Theodor Giesebrecht (1792 - 1873)

Kann ich fürchten, zweifeln, meinen?
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Kann ich fürchten, zweifeln, meinen?
Seh ich Christi Spuren nicht?1
Wandeln nicht ihm nach die Seinen
durch das Dunkel auch im Licht?

Glaubend jauchz ich: der Getreue
[Bricht hervor, ein Morgenstern]2.
