Lyrics help!

Post by katyafan »

Hi all!

I am having trouble finding the lyrics to this, I have the first verse, but I can't find the second anywhere. It seems there are several versions out there, but this one by Michael Haydn is hard to find, and I don't want to pay for the score or anything, I just want the second verse lyrics. Anyone? Thanks for looking!

Liebreiches Kind! Liebreiches Kind!
Einen zerknirschten Geist bring ich zur Gabe,
keinen Verblendungen geb ich mehr Platz.
Kind, o dich liebt mein Herz, wenn ich dich habe,
Hab ich den besten, den köstlichsten Schatz.
Außer dir möge mich nichts mehr erfreu'n;
Denn ich verlange vereinigt zu sein
Mit dir, du Göttlicher!
Du bist mein Gott und Herr.
Ich bin ganz dein.


There exist (very) slight variants in the lyrics versions, this one being the more unknown, and there are also different musical settings of the words, too. Only a remark aside, you didn't ask for that.

Thank you for your question, as I've asked the other way round always and always in my life. So I'm glad when I can help with it sometimes, too. :)
