Mein Jesu, der du mich Click to Listen, [4:3]
The first of the eleven Organ Chorale Preludes, Opus 122, published posthumously. This is one of the more esoteric of the entire set, but certainly has its lush moments. Instrument: St. Anne's Church, Moseley, Birmingham, England (1874) - Samples by Martin Dyde

Chorale Text
German:
Mein Jesu, der du mich
zum Lustspiel ewiglich
dir hast erwählet,
sieh wie dein Eigentum
des großen Bräutgams Ruhm
so gern erzählet.

English:
My Jesu, Thou who me
to delight forever
thee hast foreloved
lo, as Thy Property
of the great Bridegroom's Fame
so He loves to tell it.
--tr. Russell Davis
