Die nacht is kommen by Adam Gumpelzhaimer — Lyrics
Die nacht ist kommen,
drinn wir ruhen sollen,
Gott walts den frümmen
nach sein wolgefallen,
das wir uns legen
inn sein gleid und segen,
durch sein zupflegen.

About Die nacht is kommen
Adam Gumpelzhaimer was a composer of sacred music in the German tradition. This hymn for two sopranos and tenor is sung in German. The text speaks of night falling and the need for rest, asking for God's protection and guidance through the dark hours. It prays that God will watch over the faithful, keeping them safe in body and soul, and sending his angels to guard them until the morning.
