All of the below is completely new to me and I had never once thought about this anthem other than knowing that the old anthem "Gott erhalte usw." is the same Hayden melody as the Deutschlandlied. Anyhoo looks like it wasn't Mozart after all but instead some complete random:
==========
The melody, which at that time was incorrectly attributed to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, was matched with a text by Paula von PreradoviΔ the following year.
The melody's origin is not definitively known, and over time several possible composers have been suggested; today it is usually attributed to either Johann Holzer [de] or Paul Wranitzky.
Nineteen days before his death on 5 December 1791, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart composed his last complete work, the Freimaurerkantate, K. 623. In parts of the printed edition of this cantata there appeared the song K. 623a "Lasst uns mit geschlungnen Händen" ("Let us with joined hands"). To this melody the Austrian national anthem is sung. Today, claims of Mozart's authorship are regarded as dubious among scholars and the song is attributed to Johann Holzer [de] (either solely or co-authored with Mozart)[1] or Paul Wranitzky.[2]

but yes it isn't very nice

Ok this is the cuckiest one of all. Apparently they had an interwar anthem before they got absorbed by Germany again and forced to sing the Deutschlandlied. Wow this is fucking terrible. To Haydn's tune:
Sei gesegnet ohne Ende,
Heimaterde wunderhold!
Freundlich schmücken dein Gelände
Tannengrün und Ährengold.
Deutsche Arbeit, ernst und ehrlich,
Deutsche Liebe, zart und weich,
Vaterland, wie bist du herrlich,
Gott mit dir, mein Österreich!
