Groß ist der Herr!

Karl Friedrich Rungenhagen's sacred setting of Groß ist der Herr! is a powerful hymn for SATB choir, sung in German. The text speaks of God's greatness and benevolent love, urging the soul to reciprocate that affection. Rungenhagen, a significant figure in Berlin's musical life in the early 19th century, was known for his oratorios and choral works. This anthem offers a substantial and devotional musical expression of faith, suitable for a choir seeking a robust and spiritually uplifting repertoire piece.
