Jesu, die süsse Gedächtnusz by Georg Vogler — Lyrics
Jesu, die süsse Gedächtnusz dein,
bringt wahre Frewd dem Hertzen mein,
süsser als Honig Zuckers Art,
ist meiner Seel dein Gegenwart.
Jesu, die süsse Gedächtnusz,
bringt wahre Frewd dem Hertzen mein,
süsser als Honig Zuckers Art,
ist meiner Seel dein Gegenwart.
Jesu, der Büsser Zuversicht,
dem gütig der nach dir sich richt,
dem lieblich der dich sucht und sicht,
zeig uns O Herz, deim Angesicht.

About Jesu, die süsse Gedächtnusz
This devotional hymn from Georg Vogler, set for SATB choir, expresses profound reverence for Jesus. The German text speaks of the sweet remembrance of Jesus bringing true joy to the heart, sweeter than honey, and His presence being a light and source of grace. It reflects on the immeasurable love for God and the importance of His commandments, acknowledging that the depth of this devotion cannot be fully grasped by human senses. The composer's setting would likely bring warmth and sincerity to this sacred text, making it suitable for services of reflection and praise.
