Aria
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Dir, Dir Höchster, Dir alleine
Aller, Aller Höchster Dir,
Sinne, Kräfte und Begier
ich nur aufzuopfern meine.
Alles sei nach aller Pflicht,
Nur zu deinem Preis gericht.

Helft mir spielen, jauchzen, singen,
hebt die Herzen himmelan,
jubele was jubeln kann;
lasst all Instrumenten klingen.
Alles sei nach aller Pflicht,
Nur zu deinem Preis gericht.

Vater, hilf um Jesu willen,
laß dies Loben löblich sein
und zum Himmel dringen ein,
unser Wünschen zu erfüllen,
daß dein Herz nach Vaters Pflicht
sei zu unserm Heil gericht.
