Aus meines Herzens Grunde by Anonymous — Lyrics
Aus meines Herzens Grunde
Sag' ich dir Lob und Dank
In dieser Morgenstunde,
Dazu mein Leben lang,
O Gott, in deinem Thron,
Dir zu Preis, Lob und Ehren
Durch Christum, unsern Herren,
Dein'n eingebornen Sohn,
Daß du mich hast aus Gnaden
In der vergangnen Nacht
Vor G'fahr und allem Schaden
Behütet und bewacht.
Ich bitt' demütiglich,
Woll'st mir mein' Sünd' vergeben,
Womit in diesem Leben
Ich hab' erzürnet dich.
Du wollest auch behüten
Mich gnädig diesen Tag
Vor's Teufels List und Wüten,
Vor Sünden und vor Schmach,

About Aus meines Herzens Grunde
This sacred German hymn, set for SATB choir, offers a heartfelt prayer of thanksgiving and petition. The anonymous composer provides a setting of a text that begins with profound praise and gratitude to God for protection during the night. The singer asks for forgiveness of sins and for divine guidance and protection throughout the day, warding off temptation, shame, and even sudden death. The music is suited to a Lutheran tradition, expressing deep personal faith and reliance on divine grace. Its devotional nature makes it an ideal choice for services or moments of quiet reflection, allowing the choir to convey profound spiritual sentiment through its four-part harmony.
