Wenn Christus, der Herr, zum Menschen sich neigt

Author: Nikolaus Kaiser, 1734-1800 Hymnal: Glaubenslieder #315 (2001) Lyrics: 1 Wenn Christus, der Herr, zum Menschen sich neigt, wenn Er sich als Schild dem Schutzlosen zeigt, mag schwinden das Leben, mag nahen der Tod: Wir können nicht sinken; denn Helfer ist Gott. 2 Nicht Menschen vertraut den lastenden Schmerz, zum Himmel empor erhebet das Herz! Dort wohnet die Weisheit, die Güte, die Huld; dort thronet die Gnade für unsere Schuld. 3 Drum nahet dem Thron des Heilands der Welt mit Freimütigkeit! Er stärkt und erhält. Er ging einst auf Erden in Menschengestalt, bracht Frieden und stürzte des Todes Gewalt. Languages: German Tune Title: [Wenn Christus, der Herr, zum Menschen sich neigt]

William Croft

1678 - 1727 Person Name: William Croft, 1678-1727 Composer of "[Wenn Christus, der Herr, zum Menschen sich neigt]" in Glaubenslieder William Croft, Mus. Doc. was born in the year 1677 and received his musical education in the Chapel Royal, under Dr. Blow. In 1700 he was admitted a Gentleman Extraordinary of the Chapel Boyd; and in 1707, upon the decease of Jeremiah Clarke, he was appointed joint organist with his mentor, Dr. Blow. In 1709 he was elected organist of Westminster Abbey. This amiable man and excellent musician died in 1727, in the fiftieth year of his age. A very large number of Dr. Croft's compositions remain still in manuscript. Cathedral chants of the XVI, XVII & XVIII centuries, ed. by Edward F. Rimbault, London: D. Almaine & Co., 1844

George Frideric Handel

1685 - 1759 Person Name: Händel Composer of "[Wenn Christus, der Herr, zum Menschen sich neigt]" in Deutsches Liederbuch George Frideric Handel (b. Halle, Germany, 1685; d. London, England, 1759) became a musician and composer despite objections from his father, who wanted him to become a lawyer. Handel studied music with Zachau, organist at the Halle Cathedral, and became an accomplished violinist and keyboard performer. He traveled and studied in Italy for some time and then settled permanently in England in 1713. Although he wrote a large number of instrumental works, he is known mainly for his Italian operas, oratorios (including Messiah, 1741), various anthems for church and royal festivities, and organ concertos, which he interpolated into his oratorio performances. He composed only three hymn tunes, one of which (GOPSAL) still appears in some modern hymnals. A number of hymnal editors, including Lowell Mason, took themes from some of Handel's oratorios and turned them into hymn tunes; ANTIOCH is one example, long associated with “Joy to the World.” Bert Polman
