- Ach Herr, mich armen Sünder
[1:41]
A simple setting for one manual with the Chorale in the soprano. A dynamic arc was imposed on the Front 8' register, and the Kellner Temperament was
used.

German:
Ach Herr, mich armen Sünder
Straf nicht in deinem Zorn,
Dein' ernsten Grimm doch linder,
Sonst ist's mit mir verlorn.
Ach Herr, wollst mir vergeben
Mein Sünd und gnädig sein,
Daß ich mag ewig leben,
Entfliehn der Höllenpein.
English:
Ah Lord, me a poor sinner
Blame not within thy wrath;
Thy solemn rage yet soften,
Else is my hope forlorn.
Ah Lord, may'st thou forgive me
My sin and mercy send,
That I have life eternal
And flee the pain of hell.
--Tr. Z. Philip Ambrose
