- Nun lob mein Seel den Herren
[2:59]
Simple trio with the Chorale, a variant of the modern Doxology, played on the Pedal. The Choral Bass is used at the beginning, and is replaced by
the Piffaro (4' + 2') for the repeat, then both sing together to the end. Appropriate sounds are used on each of the manuals to balance.

German:
1. Nun lob, mein' Seel', den Herren,
Was in mir ist, den Namen sein!
Sein' Wohltat tut er mehren,
Vergiß es nicht, o Herze mein!
Hat dir dein' Sünd' vergeben
Und heilt dein' Schwachheit groß,
Errett't dein armes Leben,
Nimmt dich in seinen Schoß,
Mit rechtem Trost beschüttet,
Verjüngt dem Adler gleich.
Der Kön'g schafft Recht, behütet,
Die leiden in sein'm Reich.
English:
1. My soul, now bless thy Maker!
Let all within me bless His name
Who maketh thee partaker
Of mercies more than thou dar'st claim.
Forget Him not whose meekness
Still bears with all thy sin,
Who healeth all thy weakness,
Renews thy life within;
Whose grace and care are endless
And saved thee through the past;
Who leaves no sufferer friendless,
But rights the wronged at last.
