- This Chorale prelude was composed by Johannes Brahms, using the chorale melody used by Bach for his cantata BWV. 1142. It is also used in Bach's St. Matthew Passion, and is sung with the words "O Sacred Head Now Wounded."
1. Herzlich thut mich verlangen
nach einem selgen End;
weil ich hie bin umfangen
mit Trübsal und Elend.
Ich hab Lust abzuscheiden
von dieser argen Welt;
sehn mich noch ewgen Freuden:
o Jesu, komm nur bald.
(English Translation:
1. My heart is filled with longing
To pass away in peace;
For woes are round me thronging,
And trials will not cease.
O fain would I be hasting
From thee, dark world of gloom,
To gladness everlasting;
O Jesus, quickly come!)
