Alles ist erlaubt by Stefan Obendorf — Lyrics
Alles ist erlaubt, aber nicht alles dient zum Guten.
Alles ist erlaubt, aber nicht alles baut auf.
Niemand suche das Seine, sondern was dem Anderen dient.

About Alles ist erlaubt
Stefan Obendorf's Alles ist erlaubt is a setting of German devotional texts drawn from the Christian tradition. The composer explores themes of Christian liberty and mutual service, reflecting on the biblical injunction that while all things may be permissible, not all are beneficial or edifying. The music is for SATB choir and draws inspiration from the German lied tradition, blending a contemplative sacred text with the expressive possibilities of unaccompanied choral writing. The message encourages selfless behaviour, urging listeners to seek what benefits others and to conduct all their actions for the glory of God.
