- Ich dank dir, lieber Herre, Op. 65, No. 37

Subtitled "Antiphone," this energetic piece contrasts Great, Swell and Choir in terrace fashion wih four registrations, two for each repeated section,
reserving nearly full organ for the end. Impulse reverberation added.

3 manual version of
Schantz at First Baptist Church of Riverside, California (1966) sampled by Jonathan Orwig

German:
Ich dank' dir, lieber Herre
Dass du mich hast bewahrt
In dieser Nacht Gefähre,
Darin ich lag so hart
Mit Finsterniss umfangen,
Dazu in grosser Noth,
Daraus ich bin entgangen,
Halfst du mir Herre Gott!
English:
I thank you, dear Lord
that you have guarded me
this dangerus night
in it I lay so hard
clasped in darkness
and great need,
from which I have escaped,
You helped me Lord God!
