Description: | This tune exists in several versions. The one known to J.S.Bach is not used in the present day, and varies considerably from the modern Gesangbuch which I used for these 6 settings (for 6 strophes). Frohes neues Jahr!

1 Das alte Jahr vergangen ist:
wir danken dir, Herr Jesu Christ,
daß du uns in so groß Gefahr
so gnädiglich behüt't dies Jahr.
2 Wir bitten dich, ewigen Sohn
des Vaters in dem höchsten Thron,
du wollest deine Christenheit
ferner bewahren allezeit.
3 Entzeuch uns nicht dein heilsam's Wort,
welch's ist der Seelen Trost und Hort;
vor falscher Lehr, Abgötterei,
behüt uns, Herr, und steh uns bei.
4 Hilf, daß wir von der Sündenbahn,
und fromm zu werden fangen an;
kein'r Sünd im alten Jahr gedenk;
ein Gnadenreich neu Jahr uns schenk.
5 Christlich zu leben, seliglich
zu sterben, und hernach fröhlich
am jüngsten Tage aufzustehn,
mit dir in Himmel einzugehn.
6 Zu danken und zu preisen dich
mit allen Engeln ewiglich.
O Jesu, unsern Glauben mehr,
zu deines Namens Lob und Ehr.

1 The old year now hath passed away;
We thank Thee, O our God, today
That Thou hast kept us through the year
When danger and distress were near.
2 We pray Thee, O eternal Son,
Who with the Father reign’st as One,
To guard and rule Thy Christendom
Through all the ages yet to come.
3 Take not Thy saving Word away,
Our souls’ true comfort, staff, and stay.
Abide with us and keep us free
From errors, following only Thee.
4 Oh, help us to forsake all sin,
A new and holier course begin!
Mark not what once was done amiss;
A happier, better year be this,
5 Wherein as Christians we may live
Or die in peace that Thou canst give,
To rise again when Thou shalt come
And enter Thine eternal home.
6 There shall we thank Thee and adore
With all the angels evermore.
Lord Jesus Christ, increase our faith
To praise Thy name through life and death. |
