Description: Polyphonic two part setting of a metric psalm from Caspar Ulenberg's "Psalmen Davids in allerlei deutsche Gesangreime gebracht" (Cologne, 1582) with the cantus firmus in the lower voice. This hymn can still be found in many modern hymn books, so that this Biinium can be sung alternating with the congregation hymn.
