Der König bei der Krönung
Language: German (Deutsch)
Dir angetrauet am Altare, O Vaterland, wie bin ich dein! Laß für das Rechte mich und Wahre Nun Priester oder Opfer sein! Geuß auf mein Haupt, Herr, deine Schale, Ein köstlich Öl des Friedens, aus, Daß ich wie eine Sonne strahle Dem Vaterland und meinem Haus!
