- Nun danket alle Gott, BWV 657
[4:2]
A very grand treatment of the familiar Lutheran hymn of thanksgiving. This version comes
from the Leipzig chorales, and features the Trumpet on the chorale.

German:
Nun danket alle Gott
mit Herzen, Mund und Händen,
der grosse Dinge tut
an uns und allen Enden;
der uns von Mutterleib und Kindesbeinen an
unzählig viel zugut,
und noch jetzund getan!
--Martin Rinkert, 1636
English:
Now thank we all our God
With heart and hands and voices,
Who wondrous things has done
In whom His world rejoices.
Who from our mother's arms
Hath bless'd us on our way
With countless gifts of love,
And still is ours today.
--Catherine Winkworth, 1858
