- In Dir Ist Freude, BWV 615
[2:36]
A bell-like motive in the pedal emphasizes the idea of ringing in the New Year, but bursts of joy are appropriate any time. A
full complement of couplers is available on this version of the Marcussen samples, enabling several sonic layers.

German:
In dir ist Freude in allem Leide, O du süsser Jesu Christ!
durch dich wir habben himmlische Gaben, der du wahrer Heiland bist:
Hilfest von Schanden, rettest von banden; wer dir vertrauet,
hat wohl gebauet, wird ewig bleiben. Halleluja.
Zu deiner Güte steht unser Gmüte, An dir wir kleben
in tod und Leben, nichts kann uns scheiden. Halleluja
English:
In Thee is gladness Amid all sadness, Jesu, sunshine of my heart.
By Thee are given The gifts of heaven, Thou the true Redeemer art.
Our souls Thou wakest, Our bonds Thou breakest, Who trusts Thee surely
Hath built securely, He stands forever, Alleluia!
Our hearts are pining To see Thy shining, Dying or living,
To Thee are cleaving, Naught can us sever. Alleluia.
