Ach bleib bei uns, Op. 85, No. 3 by Carl Reinecke — Lyrics
Ach bleib bei uns, Herr Jesu Christ,
weil es nun Abend worden ist.
Dein göttlich Wort, das helle Licht,
lass ja bei uns auslöschen nicht,
ach bleib bei uns, Herr Jesu Christ!

About Ach bleib bei uns, Op. 85, No. 3
The text of this sacred setting is a plea for Christ to remain with us, especially as evening falls and in times of trouble, asking for steadfastness in faith and the preservation of God's word and sacraments. Carl Reinecke's SATB arrangement offers a heartfelt response to this devotional text, its German lyrics conveying a deep sense of supplication and reliance on divine presence. The composer's setting likely reflects the earnest, devotional character of the words, providing a choral experience that is both musically engaging and spiritually resonant. It is a suitable choice for choirs seeking meaningful sacred repertoire.
