seyner genaden begeren wir
das helff uns die gottes krafft
und das heyliche grab da gott selber innelag

About In Gottes namen faren wir
In Gottes namen faren wir paints a scene of embarking on a journey, seeking God's grace and protection. The text invokes divine strength, the holy sepulchre, and the Holy Spirit, praying for guidance and a joyful departure. Heinrich Finck sets this German devotional text for SATB choir, creating a devotional motet that reflects the sacred music traditions of its time. The plea for divine assistance and the invocation of the Trinity underscore the spiritual nature of the journey described in the lyrics.
