Text:Gott Vater, dir sei Lob und Dank

52. Gott Vater, dir sei Lob und Dank

1 Gott Vater, dir sey Lob und Dank,
durch Christum für die Speiß und Trank,
die du dem Leib bescheret;
ach! gib uns auch aus Gütigkeit,
die Himmels-Kost jetzt und allzeit
die Seel und Geist ernähret,
das wir uns dir, ganz ergeben,
und stets leben,
dir zum Preiße,
biß wir schliessen unsre Reiße.
