Chorale Text
German:
Geist und Seele wird verwirret,
Wenn sie dich, mein Gott, betracht'.
Denn die Wunder, so sie kennet
Und das Volk mit Jauchzen nennet,
Hat sie taub und stumm gemacht.

English:
Soul with spirit is bewildered
When it thee, my God, beholds.
For the wonder which it seeth
And the folk with triumph telleth
Hath it deaf and dumb now made.
--Tr. Z. Philip Ambrose
