Herr und Gott by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart — Lyrics
About Herr und Gott
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Herr und Gott is a sacred motet suitable for liturgical occasions. Sung in German by an SATB choir, the text is a prayer to God as Father and Creator. The lyrics express the choir's devotion, offering their song of praise to the benevolent and wise one whose glory is sung by countless worlds. This four-part setting allows for rich harmonic textures as the choir proclaims their dedication and reverence.
