Es ist für uns eine Zeit angekommen by Horst Hinze — Lyrics
Es ist für uns eine Zeit angekommen,
die bringt uns eine große Gnad.
Unser Heiland, Jesus Christ,
der für uns Mensch geworden ist.
In einer Krippe der Heiland muss liegen,
auf Heu und Stroh in der kalten Nacht.

About Es ist für uns eine Zeit angekommen
Horst Hinze composed this sacred Christmas motet for SAATB voices. The German text reflects on the miraculous arrival of Christ, the immense grace it brings, and the humble circumstances of his birth. It moves from the theological significance of the Incarnation to the stable in Bethlehem, where the infant Jesus lies on straw between an ox and a donkey. The motet then shifts to the adoration of the Magi, guided by a star to Bethlehem, where they lay down their crowns and sceptres to offer gifts to the child.
