Gelobet sey Gott der Vatter by André Vierendeels — Lyrics
Gelob't sey Gott der Vatter,
in seinem höchsten Thron,
und auch der Seligmacher,
sein eingeborner Sohn,
gelob't sey auch der Tröster
der lebendmacher Geist,
der einig Gott und Herzscher,
die Dreyheit allermeist.
Kyrie, eleyson.
O Gott! Wöllest auszrenten
Irzthumb und Ketzerey,
damit bry allen Leuten,
der Glaub ohn Irzthumb sey:
Den Glauben helff vermehren
auff Erden weit und breit,
dasz alle dich recht ehren,
nun in Ewigkeit.
Kyrie, eleyson.

About Gelobet sey Gott der Vatter
This German hymn sets forth a profound theological statement, beginning with praise for God the Father, His only Son, and the Holy Spirit, acknowledging the Trinity. The text then moves to a fervent plea for the eradication of heresy and the strengthening of faith throughout the world. It further invokes divine aid for rulers and princes, praying for victory in battle and wise governance for the Holy Roman Emperor and all leaders. Composed for TTB voices, this sacred work offers a powerful and comprehensive expression of faith and supplication, suitable for a choir seeking to explore rich devotional texts.
