Cantata, BWV 140 “Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme”

So geh herein zu mir
Mein Freund ist mein!
Gloria sei dir gesungen


PAUSE


Johann Sebastian Bach (1685–1750)

Cantata, BWV 80 “Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott” 

Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott
Alles, was von Gott geboren / Mit unser Macht ist nichts getan
Erwäge doch, Kind Gottes
Komm in mein Herzenshaus
Und wenn die Welt voll Teufel wär
So stehe dann bei Christi blutgefärbter Fahne
Wie selig sind doch die, die Gott im Munde tragen
Das Wort sie sollen lassen stahn
