Ewiger Gott, aus des Gebot by Ludwig Senfl — Lyrics
Ewiger Gott, aus des’ Gebot
der Sohn kam hie auf Erden,
daß er dem Rat der Trinitat
Folg‘ tät, ein Mensch zu werden.
Durch alle dein Güt
bitt ich, behüt
vor Sünden rein
die christlich G’mein
dein Gnad tu ihr mitteilen,

About Ewiger Gott, aus des Gebot
Ludwig Senfl’s motet Ewiger Gott, aus des Gebot is a sacred work for SATB choir. The German text is a prayer to God, asking Him to protect the Christian community from sin through the intercession of His Son. The composer asks for divine grace to overcome the devil’s temptations and for the soul to be sustained in faith, free from sinful complaints. Senfl, a significant figure in German Renaissance music, crafts a setting that reflects the devotional nature of the text, making it a profound choice for services or concerts.
