207. Nun schrieb ins Buch des Lebens

1 Nun schreib ins Buch des Lebens,
Herr, ihre Namen ein,
und laß sie nicht vergebens
dir zugeführet sein.

2 Ach präge jedem Kinde
dein Wort recht tief ins Herz,
daß es, bewahrt vor Sünde,
dir dien in Freud und Schmerz.

3 Du, der du selbst das Leben,
der Weg, die Wahrheit bist,
uns allen wollst du geben
dein Heil, Herr Jesu Christ.
