Herrens moder

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.

by Edvard Brandes (1847-1931) , from Hos Sigbrit, published 1898
