History

Apart that Elisabeth Cruciger's authorship has been ascertained, little or nothing is known about the genesis of "Herr Christ, der einig Gotts Sohn".[1] The notion that it was modelled after the Christmas hymn "Corde natus ex parentis" ("Of the Father's Heart Begotten"), repeated, for instance, in Bach-scholarship,Шаблон:Sfn lost traction in hymnology.Шаблон:Sfn The melody of Cruciger's hymn has some similarity with the tune of "Mein Freud möcht sich wohl mehren" ("My Joy Will Increase"), a secular love song known from the Lochamer-Liederbuch (1455).Шаблон:Sfn

"Herr Christ, der einig Gotts Sohn" was first published in 1524, both in the Erfurt Enchiridion and in Johann Walter's choral hymnal Шаблон:Lang in Wittenberg.Шаблон:Sfn In the Enchiridion, the hymn appeared with 25 others, 18 by Martin Luther, three by Paul Speratus, one or two by Justus Jonas, one by Erhard Hegenwald, and one attributed to Jan Hus, making this the only hymn in the Enchiridion by a female author.Шаблон:Sfn

Titled "Шаблон:Lang" (A song of praise of Christ) in the hymnal Enchiridion, the song is a praise of Jesus as the son of God and saviour of man. The hymn text combines Lutheran teaching with medieval mysticism which the author experienced as a nun before she converted.Шаблон:Sfn Cruciger writes in the third stanza, for example: "so, daß wir hier mögen schmecken dein Süßigkeit im Herzen und dürsten stets nach dir" (that we may here taste your sweetness in our hearts and constantly thirst for you).Шаблон:Sfn It was the first Protestant chorale to use mystical images, imitated in the Jesus mysticism of later generations.Шаблон:Sfn Philipp Nicolai referenced the hymn in his own hymn "Шаблон:Lang"; both authors use the title "Шаблон:Lang" (morning star) for Jesus.Шаблон:Sfn

"Herr Christ, der einig Gotts Sohn" has been associated with Epiphany,Шаблон:Sfn the first and second Sundays after Epiphany,Шаблон:Sfn Annunciation,Шаблон:Sfn the 18th Sunday after Trinity,Шаблон:Sfn Advent,Шаблон:Sfn and Christmas.[2] The hymn has been included in over 30 hymnals.[2] It appears as No. 67 in Шаблон:Lang.Шаблон:Sfn The hymn tune of "Herr Christ, der einig Gotts Sohn" (Zahn No. 4297a)Шаблон:Sfn was later also used for "Herr Gott, nun sei gepreiset", the content of which has no relation to that of Cruciger's hymn.Шаблон:Sfn Other hymns sung to the same tune include "Wenn meine Sünd' mich kränken",Шаблон:Efn "Dich bitten wir deine Kinder", "O Vater aller Frommen" and "Gib zum Früchten der Erden".Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn

It was translated as early as 1567 as 'Christ is the onlie son of God' in the early Scots hymnbook, The Gude and Godlie Ballatis by the Wedderburn brothers of Dundee.

Musical settings

Hans Leo Hassler composed a four-part setting in 1608, Johann Hermann Schein set the song for two sopranos and basso continuo in 1622, and for four voices and basso continuo in 1627. Samuel Scheidt wrote a four-part setting in Görlitz in 1650.Шаблон:Sfn

Johann Sebastian Bach used the hymn as the base for his chorale cantata Шаблон:Lang (1724), and used single stanzas in other cantatas.Шаблон:Sfn Bach composed an organ prelude, BWV 601, part of his Orgelbüchlein.Шаблон:Sfn

Georg Philipp Telemann composed two cantatas, both on a libretto by Erdmann Neumeister, in 1722 and 1758.Шаблон:Sfn

Several composers wrote organ preludes, including Dieterich Buxtehude,Шаблон:Sfn Johann Hermann Schein and Jan Pieter Sweelinck.
