Til Faderen

Representative Text

1 Til Faderen,
O Sjæl, forglem det ei!
Gik Jesus hen igjennem Lidelsen;
Tænk, det var saa tung en Vei!
Naar du, som han, vandre skal
Dødens Dal,
Du Trøst og Styrke faar,
Og ei alene gaar;
Se, din Frelser følger med,
Kom ihu, han har bered
Dig hos Faderen et Sted!

2 Et Øieblik,
Saa slukkes Lyset ud.
O du, som gik, og Himlen aabnet fik,
Og forligte os med Gud!
Naar jeg skal gaa ad den Vei,
Hvor man ei
Tilbage kommer mer,
Bryd lempelig mit Ler!
Løs mig Dødens haarde Baand,
Send mig din den gode Aand,
Tag min Sjæl udi din Haand!
