Es sind die heil'gen Sakrament by Georg Vogler — Lyrics
Es seyn die heilgen Sacrament,
Sichtbarliche Zeichen genennt,
so von Gott selbsten ordinirt,
dardurch die Gnad empfangen wird,
deren seyn Sieben an der Zahl,
dafür ich danck Gott tausendmal.
Der Tauff, die Confirmation,
das dritt Christi Fronleichnamb schon:
Das vierdt die Busz mit rechter Beicht,

About Es sind die heil'gen Sakrament
Georg Vogler's Es sind die heil'gen Sakrament is a sacred setting for two-part choir (soprano and bass). Sung in German, it explores the Seven Sacraments of the Catholic Church, as described in the text. The music sets a theological exposition of each sacrament, beginning with baptism and progressing through confirmation, communion, penance, anointing of the sick, holy orders, and marriage. The composer's setting focuses on the theological significance and divine origin of these rites, emphasizing their role in imparting grace to the faithful.
