Abend wird es wieder — Lyrics
Abend wird es wieder,
Über Wald und Feld
Säuselt Frieden nieder
Und es ruht die Welt.
Nur der Bach ergießet
Sich am Felsen dort,
Und er braust und fließet
Immer, immer fort.

About Abend wird es wieder
Abend wird es wieder is a German folk song, here arranged for SATB choir. The text reflects on the coming of evening and the peace that settles over the world. It contrasts this general tranquility with the ceaseless flow of a stream, which finds no rest. The song then draws a parallel to the human heart, suggesting that only in God can true peace and rest be found amidst life's striving. The composer is traditional, indicating its roots in folk music heritage.
