Rette Vater, dein geliebtes Kind!
Music: Johanna Kinkel (1810–1858) · Words: (Johann) Gottfried Kinkel (1815–1882)
Einem Ruf hab ich gelauschet,
den du mir in’s Herz gesendet,
One press of Sing plays this song on this device (7:53) and stops after the last: the piano and the words come from the score, so a key change or a slower tempo changes no sound file.
The microphone is asked for only when you press its button. What it hears is measured and scored on this device and never leaves it; nothing is kept unless you record and save the file yourself. What is kept, and where.
The words
Einem Ruf hab ich gelauschet,
den du mir in’s Herz gesendet,
Ewger Vater, Quell des Lichts! Mein Verderben
ist gewendet,
nicht mehr Todverkündend rauschet mir der
Sturm des Weltgerichts!
Doch wie sie mir Schaden brächten,
stets die Schaar der Feinde sinnt;
Rette,
rette
Du aus diesen Nächten, Vater, dein geliebtes
Kind!
Rette
Vater, dein geliebtes Kind!
Mag ich denn auch ringen, streben,
ganz die Welt mir zu erkämpfen,
dass sie diene deinem Reich! Ach ich kann sie
doch nicht dämpfen,
oft noch muss ich mich ergeben ihrem Locken
süss und weich.
Schau wie sie mit Zauber flechten
ihrer Schönheit mich umspinnt;
Rette,
rette
Du aus Sünden Nächten,
Vater, dein geliebtes Kind!
Rette
Vater, dein geliebtes Kind!
Ja, du nährst die Kraft! Gewaltig
steh ich in dem Streit als Sieger;
aber weh! mich trifft ihr Zorn! Und den kühnen
Gotteskrieger,
trifft, verschmäht sie vielgestaltig mit des
bittern Todes Dorn.
Mit dem letzten Feind zu fechten,
hilf, Herr, meine Kraft verrinnt;
Rette,
rette
Du aus Todes Nächten,
Vater, dein geliebtes Kind!
Rette
Vater, dein geliebtes Kind!
