Das fünft Hauptstück by Georg Vogler — Lyrics
Das fünft Hauptstück nun hin bereit:
Die Christlich Gerechtigkeit,
laszt stehn das bösz und thut das gut:
und wer Gerecht durchs Glaubens hut,
der musz durch gantze Werck noch sehr
gerechter werden mehr und mehr.
Sag her, mein G'sell und machs nit lang
was soll man fliehen ala ein Schlang?
Fliehen soll man Laster und Sünd?

About Das fünft Hauptstück
Georg Vogler composed this sacred hymn in German for two-part choir (soprano and bass). The text focuses on Christian righteousness, urging listeners to abandon sin and embrace good deeds. It emphasizes that true righteousness comes through faith, strengthened by good works, and warns against vices and sins that lead to spiritual and physical ruin. The lyrics question the greatest sins, identifying deadly sins and sins against the Holy Spirit as the most harmful, ultimately leading to hell if unrepented.
