- Auf meinen lieben Gott, BuxWV 179
[4:48]
Chorale and 4 variations in the form of a dance suite: Double, Sarabande, Courante and Gigue. Probably belongs in the harpsichord realm, but with a
few added pedal notes on such a charming old organ, it makes a distinctive impression.
Instrument:
Virtual organ set from 1698 Starck organ at Monastery Church of Zlata Koruna, Czech Republic - Samples by Jiri Zurek

German:
Auf meinen lieben Gott
Trau' ich in Angst und Not,
Der kann mich allzeit retten
Aus Trübsal, Angst und Nöten,
Mein Unglück kann er wenden,
Steht all's in seinen Händen.
English:
In my beloved God
I trust in fear and need;
He can me e'er deliver
From sadness, fear and trouble.
My sorrow can he alter,
For all rests in his hands now.
