Switzerland National Anthem and Lyrics – World Countries Atlas

1st verse Trittst im Morgenrot daher, Seh’ ich dich im Strahlenmeer, Dich, du Hocherhabener, Herrlicher! Wenn der Alpenfirn sich r�tet, Betet, freie Schweizer, betet! Eure fromme Seele ahnt Gott im hehren Vaterland, Gott, den Herrn, im hehren Vaterland. 2nd verse Kommst im Abendgl�hn daher, Find’ ich dich im Sternenheer, Dich, du Menschenfreundlicher, Liebender! In des Himmels lichten R�umen Kann ich froh und selig tr�umen! Denn die fromme Seele ahnt Gott im hehren Vaterland, Gott, den Herrn, im hehren Vaterland. 3rd verse Ziehst im Nebelflor daher, Such’ ich dich im Wolkenmeer, Dich, du Unergr�ndlicher, Ewiger! Aus dem grauen Luftgebilde Tritt die Sonne klar und milde, Und die fromme Seele ahnt Gott im hehren Vaterland, Gott, den Herrn, im hehren Vaterland. 4th verse F�hrst im wilden Sturm daher, Bist Du selbst uns Hort und Wehr, Du, allm�chtig Waltender, Rettender! In Gewitternacht und Grauen Lasst uns kindlich ihm vertrauen! Ja, die fromme Seele ahnt, Ja, die fromme Seele ahnt Gott im hehren Vaterland,

Gott, den Herrn, im hehren Vaterland !

1st verse When the morning skies grow red And o’er us their radiance shed, Thou, O Lord, appearest in their light. When the Alps glow bright with splendour, Pray to God, to Him surrender, For you feel and understand, That He dwelleth in this land. 2nd verse In the sunset Thou art night And beyond the starry sky, Thou, O loving Father, ever near. When to Heaven we are departing, Joy and bliss Thou’lt be imparting, For we feel and understandhttps://www.world-countries.orghttps://www.world-countries.org That Thou dwellest in this land. 3rd verse When dark clouds enshroud the hills And gray mist the valley fills, Yet Thou art not hidden from Thy sons. Pierce the gloom in which we cover With Thy sunshine’s cleansing power Then we’ll feel and understand That God dwelleth in this land. 4th verse Towards us in the wild storm coming, You yourself give us resistance and stronghold, You, almighty ruling, rescueing! During horror and nights of thunderstorms Let us childlike trust him! Yes, we feel and understand

That God dwelleth in this land.
