Der Engel bringt wahren Bericht by Joachim a Burgk — Lyrics
Der Engel bringt wahren Bericht,
lass fahren all Menschen Geticht;
in diesen Weinachtstagen,
lernet von der englischen Schar,
frölig singen zum newen Jahr,
und ihr von Hertzen sagen:
R.: Ehr' sey Gott in der Höhe,
auf Erden Fried und Ruhe,
der Mensch an Christi Namen,
hab wolgefallen, Amen.
Wen die Klarheit des Herrn erschreckt,
wem das Gesetz die Sünd entdeckt,

About Der Engel bringt wahren Bericht
Joachim a Burgk's sacred hymn Der Engel bringt wahren Bericht is set for SSAATTBB voices. The German text relays the joyful news of Christ's birth, as announced by an angel, urging listeners to cast aside human teachings and learn from the heavenly host. It calls for joyous singing to the New Year and praises God in the highest, with peace and goodwill on earth. The lyrics offer comfort to those troubled by sin, reminding them of the angel's message and the great joy it brings. The piece emphasizes that the Saviour has been born, saving humanity from eternal damnation and bringing salvation through Christ the Lord, born in the city of David.
