by Harriet Augusta Dorotea Löwenhjelm (1887 - 1918)

O du som gjort den fagra jord
Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
O du som gjort den fagra jord,
giv smulorna från livets bord
till alla de förknytta!
En dag, en lycklig dag dem giv
Av detta snabba jordeliv,
Och gör dem som förbytta!

O, låt dem skåda solens sken
Och snön, som är på gran och en,
Och mänskor, som är nätta,
och låt dem bjudas i ett hus,
Där det är varmt och julgransljus
Och låt dem bliva mätta!
