Ich freu mich Deiner Gnade
und greif nach Deinem Heil.
Herr, Du hast mich geladen,
Dein Wort ward mir zuteil,
das Wort, das von Vergebung spricht,
ich danke Dir und zweifle nicht.
Es wich die Nacht der Sünden
dem Morgen Deiner Gnad,
Du kamst, um mich zu finden
auf meinem dunklen Pfad.
Nun ist das Wunder mir geschehn,
ich darf in Deinem Lichte stehn!
Wie will ich je Dir danken
mit meinem Herz und Sinn?
Durchbrecher aller Schranken,
nimm mich nun gänzlich hin.
Ich will Dir dienen, Herr, allein,
laβ mich Dein Kind und Zeuge sein!
