Herr! Du hast mein Fleh'n vernommen, Selig pocht's in meiner Brust; In die Welt hinaus, ins Leben Folgt mir nun des Himmels Lust. Dort auch bist ja Du mir nahe, Überall und jederzeit; Aller Orten ist Dein Tempel, Wo das Herz sich fromm Dir weih't. Segne, Herr, mich und die meinen! Segne unsern Lebensgang! Alles unser Thun und Wirken Sey ein frommer Lobgesang!

Heer, Gij hebt mijn roep vernomen, ik ervaar dat binnenin; in de wereld en het leven sterkt mij nu een diep’re zin. Daar zult Gij mij nader blijven overal en t’allen tijd’; allerwegen is uw tempel, waar het hart zich aan U wijdt! Zegen, Heer, mij en de mijnen, zegen onze levensgang: dat ons aller doen en werken voor U zij een lofgezang.
