- Aus meines Herzens Grunde, Op. 67, No. 4
[2:1]
A quasi-fugal introduction in the two lower manual voices and pedal (based on the Chorale) in eighth notes gives way to faster notes and syncopations
while the Chorale sounds sturdily in half notes in the soprano. The organ is reduced slightly for the repeat. Registration: Haupwerk: Principal 8' +
Viola di Gamba 8' + Octave 4' + Progressio Harmonica 2-3 Fach, coupled (not for repeat) to Full Hinterwerk, with Full Pedal beneath.
Instrument:
F. A. Mehmel Village Church Organ, St. Andreas Church, Nehringen Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany (1868) -

German:
Aus meines Herzens Grunde
Sag' ich dir Lob und Dank
In dieser Morgenstunde,
Dazu mein Leben lang,
O Gott, in deinem Thron,
Dir zu Preis, Lob und Ehren
Durch Christum, unsern Herren,
Dein'n eingebornen Sohn,
English:
My inmost heart now raises
In this fair morning hour
A song of thankful praises
To Thine almighty pow'r,
O God, upon Thy throne.
To honor and adore Thee,
I bring my praise before Thee
Thro' Christ, Thine only Son.
