Text:Christ fuhr gen Himmel
Tune:[Christ fuhr gen Himmel]

120. Christ fuhr gen Himmel

Christi fuhr gen Himmel.
Was sandt er uns hernieder?
Den Tröster, den Heiligen Geist,
zu Trost der ganzen Christenheit,
Kyrieleis.
Christ fuhr mit Schallen
von seinen Jüngern allen.
Er signet' sie mit seiner Hand
und sandte sie in alle Land.
Kyrieleis.
Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja!
Des solln wir alle froh sein,
Christ will unser Trost sein.
Kyrieleis.
