This stanza was followed with the Horst Wessel song during Hitler's reign.
That phrase has plenty of negative connotations.Eternity is in love with the productions of time

Our anthem is soely the third stanza and it is exactly for the reason I mentioned in my previous post.

It wasn't even the NSDAP re-using it, it was chosen as the national anthem of Germany (Weimar Republic) before, in 1922. It is legal in Germany to sing the whole song, but it is not part of the anthem.
In the 20th century a lot of (democratic) Germans tried to reclaim all stanzas for the anthem. So...

Damn, i've been following dutch soccer since marco van basten scored that volley in 88! I really thought this was their WC. Again, why did a defender shoot the first penalty?! I don't care what kind of game he had, there's a reason he is a defender. Germany will beat Argentina. And I hope the dutch beat Brazil 8-0. Maybe Scolari will finally go away.
