J.S. Bach: The Well-Tempered Clavier, Book 1, BWV 846-869 / Prelude & Fugue in C Major, BWV 846 - I. Prelude |
Ich ruf zu dir, Herr Jesu Christ, |
Ich bitt, erhor mein Klagen, |
Verleih mir Gnad zu dieser Frist, |
La? |
mich doch nicht verzagen; |
Den rechten Glauben, Herr, ich mein, |
Den wollest du mir geben, |
Dir zu leben, |
Meinm Nachsten nutz zu sein, |
Dein Wort zu halten eben. |
1. Chorus |
I call to You, Lord Jesus Christ, |
I beg You, hear my cries, |
grant me mercy at this time, |
do not let me despair; |
the true faith, Lord, I mean |
that You would give me, |
to live for You, |
to be of use to my neighbor, |
to keep Your word faithfully. |
