New Feature Alert


It’s now easier than ever to see both the author's and the composer's versions of a text!

After more than a year in development, I'm thrilled to announce that we've finally implemented the ability to view "sung texts" with all the modifications by a given composer already applied. Over 10,000 pages will benefit from this improvement. It should especially benefit those of you who need accurate texts for concert programs and CD booklets.

I'm excited to share this new feature with all of you and hope that it enhances your experience on the LiederNet Archive. Take some time to explore and enjoy! — Emily

Herr! Du hast mein Fleh'n vernommen,
Selig pocht's in meiner Brust;
In die Welt hinaus, ins Leben
Folgt mir nun des Himmels Lust.

Dort auch bist ja Du mir nahe,
Überall und jederzeit;
Aller Orten ist Dein Tempel,
Wo das Herz sich fromm Dir weih't.

Segne, Herr, mich und die meinen!
Segne unsern Lebensgang!
Alles unser Thun und Wirken
Sey ein frommer Lobgesang!
