An die Liebe|XII Gesellschaftliche Gesänge für drei Männerstimmen, Op. VI by Franz Xaver Eisenhofer — Lyrics
Holde Liebe! sanfte Freuden
gießest du durchs weite All.
Alles Dunkel, alle Leiden
hellt dein wonnevoller Strahl.
Was sich in den Räumen reget,
so lieblich, so wonniglich,

About An die Liebe|XII Gesellschaftliche Gesänge für drei Männerstimmen, Op. VI
Holde Liebe, gentle joys, you pour through the wide universe. All darkness, all suffering is brightened by your blissful ray. Franz Xaver Eisenhofer’s An die Liebe is a TTB setting of a German text celebrating the power of love to illuminate and invigorate all creation. The composer captures the text's ecstatic mood with music that rushes forward, depicting the energetic stirring and burgeoning life that love inspires. This is a secular partsong from Eisenhofer's Op. VI collection, likely intended for social gatherings of male voices.
