Heilig by Dmitri Bortniansky — Lyrics
Heilig, heilig ist Gott der Herr Sabaoth!
Alle Lande sind seiner Ehre voll.
Himmel und Erde sind voll von seiner Herrlichkeit.
Hosisanna, in der Höhe.

About Heilig
Dmitri Bortniansky's Heilig is a sacred choral work for SATB voices, originally conceived in Russian, though this edition presents it in a German translation. The text is a profound expression of divine majesty and praise, proclaiming God's holiness and the fullness of his glory throughout creation. The lyrics call for adoration and rejoicing, inviting the choir to offer psalms and hallelujahs. This setting, rooted in the tradition of sacred Lutheran hymns (Lieder), offers a powerful and devotional musical experience, suitable for services or concerts seeking to convey a sense of awe and reverence.
