PRAYER DURING BATTLE by HERMANN HAGEDORN

First Line: LORD, IN THIS HOUR OF TUMULT
Last Line: MY MIND, MY HEART!

Lord, in this hour of tumult,
Lord, in this night of fears,
Keep open, oh, keep open
My eyes, my ears.

Not blindly, not in hatred,
Lord, let me do my part.
Keep open, oh, keep open
My mind, my heart!
