Dein Wille, Herr, geschehe

Dein Wille, Herr, geschehe!
Verdunkelt schweigt das Land,
Im Zug der Wetter sehe
ich schauernd deine Hand.
O mit uns Sündern gehe
erbarmend ins Gericht!
Ich beug' im tiefsten Wehe
zum Staub mein Angesicht.
Dein Wille, Herr, geschehe!

by Josef Karl Benedikt von Eichendorff (1788-1857) , no title, from Geistliche Gedichte, in Der Pilger, no. 2
