Representative Text

1 Farvel, du gode gamle Aar!
Med Tak vi afsked tage,
Nu være glemt hvert Hjertesaar
I dine mange Dage!
Hidtil jo Herren hjulpet har;
Hvad Godt vi fik, kun Naade var,
Thi vi det ei fortjente.

2 Vær du, o Jesus Krist, vor Trøst,
Mens vi paa Jorden vandre1
Du har os med dit blod forløst,
Thi lad os med hverandre
Som Dyrekjøbte her fremgaa,
Til vi, de Store med de Smaa,
Tilsidst hos dig maa samles!

3 Da kommer ret det Glædens Aar,
Hvor Graad ei mer skal være;
En Jul, som aldrig ende faar,
Da holdes Krist til Ære;
Da skal vi se ham, som han er,
O, dette Haab os trøste her
I hvert er Aar, vi leve!
