Mit Fried und Freud ich fahr dahin

(

)

... that Martin Luther's hymn "Mit Fried und Freud ich fahr dahin" (pictured), a reflection of the canticle of Simeon, is the base of funeral music by Schütz, Buxtehude and Bach?

Comment: You don't see details on the pic, but it might raise curiosity.

I've fixed a few things and done some copyediting, but in general it looks fine. Length and newness are OK. However, sourcing is lacking for the Theme section; could you please cite this? Prioryman (talk) 12:59, 1 December 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for your trust ;) - I found the entry for the translation, which - on top of the bible source - should reference the theme. Little problem: the meter there is give for the English version. Why the translator deviated from the original in the second line I don't know. Do we need to source the number in the EG? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:19, 1 December 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for adding the citation. Yes, I think it probably would be a good idea to source the EG number; can you take care of this? Prioryman (talk) 09:29, 2 December 2014 (UTC)

Easily ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:25, 2 December 2014 (UTC)

Great, thanks Gerda. We're good to go here. Prioryman (talk) 11:28, 2 December 2014 (UTC)
