Morgengesang

Fern im Ost beginnt die Sonne 
ihren Welterleuchtungsgang.
Lechensang und Erntewonne 
sprossen ihrer Spur entlang,
Brechet den Schlummer und säumet euch nicht 
die ihr begnadigt zu wandeln im Licht!
Sorge und Not die das Herz euch beschwert
wird von dem Strahle des Frührots verzehrt.
Brechet den Schlummer und säumet euch nicht!
