Thank You!

How beautiful to hear this music; just like home!

I know this song as "Merk, Seele, dir das grosse Wort" by Zinzendorf.

Anybody know the English version?

Thank you for your kind comment. Somehow I didn't this song that you had mentioned in my bavarian music book. Let me know the english version if you have found it some way.

I'll keep looking...

BTW,it's supposed to be "Merk, Selle, dir dies grosse Wort."

Sorry for the mistake.

I remember this as a Lutheran (whoops, Wesley) hymn: 'Alas! and did my Savior bleed'. The melody (New Britain) is found a second time in my hymn book. 'Thee is a safe and secret place'. [Sorry for the instinctive reaction to thinking that every hymn in Lutheran hymnbook is Lutheran.]

Hi, you are correct to say that this tune is actually for '! and did my Savior bleed'. But somehow since as a child, I had been singing this song "As pants the hart for cooling streams" with the tune:Mar­tyr­dom. It may be because we actually belong to lutheran church. Thank you for your information.

God bless you
