Sunday music spot: Bach's "Jauchzet, frohlocket" (Rise up and rejoice)
German text | English translation |
---|---|
Jauchzet, frohlocket, auf, preiset die Tage, | Celebrate, rejoice, rise up and praise these days, |
Rühmet, was heute der Höchste getan! | glorify what the Highest has done today! |
Lasset das Zagen, verbannet die Klage, | Abandon despair, banish laments, |
Stimmet voll Jauchzen und Fröhlichkeit an! | sound forth full of delight and happiness! |
Dienet dem Höchsten mit herrlichen Chören, | Serve the Highest with glorious choruses, |
Laßt uns den Namen des Herrschers verehren! | let us honor the name of the Supreme Ruler! |
