Text:Herr, lenke unsre Herzen
Author:Unbekannt
Tune:[Herr, lenke unsre Herzen]
Composer:Wilhelm Brockhaus, 1819-1888

51. Herr, lenke unsre Herzen

1 Herr, lenke unsre Herzen
Und unsern ganzen Sinn
Auf Deine Angst und Schmerzen
Und auf Dein Opfer hin!

2 Du ließest Dich verklagen,
Du wardst verhöhnt, verspeit,
Verspottet und geschlagen,
Du Herr der Herrlichkeit!

3 Du wardst von Gott verlassen,
Damit Er bei uns sei,
Du mußt'st im Tod erblassen,
Damit vom Tod wir frei.

4 O Lamm, sei hochgepriesen!
Du trugst die ganze Schuld.
Dank Dir! Du hast erwiesen
Nur Gnade, Lieb' und Huld.
