Freut euch zugleich by Anonymous — Lyrics
Freut euch zugleich,
Arme und Reich',
euch ist der Held geboren,
den euch aus Gnad
uns Menschen zu Trost
hat Gott selbst auserkoren.
Sehet, wie fein
das Kindelein
in der Krippen tut liegen.

About Freut euch zugleich
This motet by an anonymous composer is a sacred work in German, suitable for SSATB voices. The text rejoices in the birth of Christ, the hero chosen by God to bring comfort to all, rich and poor alike. It describes the humble setting of the infant in the manger, emphasizing Christ's power as the one before whom heaven and earth bow. The final stanza expresses heartfelt gratitude for his birth, which redeems humanity from suffering. This motet offers a rich opportunity for a choir to convey profound theological meaning through powerful, celebratory music.
