Hoffnung by Friedrich Schneider — Lyrics
Hoffnung, Hoffnung, immer grün!
Wenn dem Armen alles fehlet,
alles weicht, ihn alles quälet,
du, o Hoffnung, labest ihn.

About Hoffnung
The German text 'Hoffnung' speaks of hope, a constant green, that sustains the needy when all else fails. Even when fortune robs us of friends, joy, dignity, or possessions, sweet hope offers shelter from its fury. Friedrich Schneider’s setting for TTBB voices captures this message of enduring optimism. This secular part-song is ideal for male choirs looking to explore German repertoire, offering a rich harmonic language and a message that resonates deeply.
