- Aus tiefer Not schrei ich zu dir, Op. 67, No. 3
[2:1]
Played on flutes and strings, the lyrical accompaniment makes a good foil for the Chorale in the Pedal. As suggested in the score, the repeat is
slightly louder. The tremulant for the entire organ, in old Gospel style, disappears near the end, and a 16' sneaks in on the last pedal note. Impulse
reverberation added. WAV file is available in RAR format: here (9.7 MB).

German:
Aus tiefer Not schrei ich zu dir,
Herr Gott, erhör mein Rufen;
Dein gnädig Ohr neig her zu mir
Und meiner Bitt sie öffne!
Denn so du willt das sehen an,
Was Sünd und Unrecht ist getan,
Wer kann, Herr, vor dir bleiben?
English:
In deep distress I cry to thee,
Lord God, hear thou my calling;
Thy gracious ear bend low to me
And open to my crying!
For if thou wilt observance make
Of sin and deed unjustly done,
Who can, Lord, stand before thee?
--Tr. Z. Philip Ambrose
