Listening to MP3 files is far "greener" than buying CDs, so perhaps a donation is in order;
it will help me to continue offering music for your enjoyment.
- Chorale Text
German:
Lob sei dem allmächtigen Gott,
Der unser sich erbarmet hat,
Gesandt sein allerliebsten Sohn
Aus ihm geborn im höchsten Thron.
English:
To God we render thanks and praise,
Who pitied mankind's fallen race,
And gave His dear and only Son,
That us, as children, He might own.
--Tr. Moravian Hymn Book
